Fresh
A sunflower blooms at Robert J. Moody Demonstration Garden, Yuma, Arizona.
When sunflowers bloom,
sparrows light up the garden
with fresh morning songs.

Tree Hugger
Student artwork at a Yuma County, Arizona high school.
A tree-hugging bird is a sight
That’s visible only in light,
For like you and me
The bird in the tree
Finds comfort in sleeping at night.

Picnic
Yuma Pioneer Cemetery, Yuma, Arizona.
Party-crashing ants
help themselves to chips and cake
at our picnic lunch.
~~ ~~ ~~
We fixed ourselves a picnic, we munched among the dead,
For it was in the graveyard that our feast was spread.
The ants came uninvited and helped themselves to cake;
Now we see that picnicking was a huge mistake!

Blue Monday: Labyrinth & Prayer Flags
Tibetan prayer flags flutter near a labyrinth at a church in Phoenix, Arizona.
A circular path is the best;
Along the whole way you can rest.
When you go around,
Not making a sound,
It’s hard to be other than blest!

Listening
Hikers can see for miles on the trail above Pipe Spring National Monument near Fredonia, Arizona.
Pausing on the trail,
I listen to my heartbeat
and a scolding crow.
