Wastelands
Spines and stones in Pinal County, Arizona
in praise of wastelands
she walks a dusty footpath
making up new songs

Grin
Autumn decoration on a grave, Wellton Memorial Cemetery, Wellton, Arizona
With a crooked grin
a scarecrow honors blackbirds
and their many wiles.

Blue Monday: Windmill
A windmill no longer used at Yuma Conservation Garden, Yuma, Arizona.
This windmill, though rusted and worn,
Deserves some attention, not scorn.
It needs a facelift—
Fresh paint is a gift—
And then it’ll shine night and morn!

Happiness
Ice cream shop sign, Historic Downtown Yuma, Arizona
Ice cream is happiness, everyone knows;
It makes you all shivery down to your toes.
Nothing beats ice cream to light up your face,
And make your tongue tingle, and make your heart race.

Blue Monday: Stump
Sign painted on a tree stump, Robert J. Moody Demonstration Garden, Yuma, Arizona
Whenever a stump’s painted blue,
And whether it’s old or it’s new,
It’s worth a hard look
(At least in my book)
Because of its heavenly hue!
