flamboyant maples
offset the austerity
of the stately pines

while hiking through
a land unseen,
i stumbled on a view
where luscious hills
of verdant green
encradle waters blue

three unlikely pals
making secret plans
for incredible journeys
beyond the farm lands

some see angry gods
in a thunderstorm’s advance,
and some see mother nature
simply watering her plants

wildflowers show the way
like the innumerable stars
that illuminate the dark
dusty lanes of the galaxy

Lil Blue Eyes was the saddest fawn I’d ever seen. She’d barely had time to dry off in this world when her mama crossed paths with modern civilization on the highway and left her to the wolves. Luckily, she was rescued by my farmer friend, who took her home and introduced her to all the barnyard denizens on her farm. Amazingly, she was befriended by all. Her family now includes many horses and their foals, dozens of cats and dogs, and one very fat-but-friendly hog. The sadness seems to be lifting.

It’s another great morning of jaw-dropping beauty, and I am officially 7 months sober today!!
I like this photo because, if I look at it in just the right way, I can see a roiling, fuming lake of fire beyond the trees that extends to the distant purple mountains.

Bump on a Log
“Mama, if the eagle comes for us, will the turtle over there help us? He’s got a big hard shell–maybe we could hide under it.”
“No, I’m sorry my little ones; the turtle has his log, and that’s all he cares about.”
