Cobbled street photo streetPuertoNuevo_zps796260d6.jpg
Puerto Nuevo, a fishing village south of Tijuana in Baja California Norte, México
 


Little grains of beach sand
Scattered on the street;
Little grains of beach sand—
Watch your tender feet!
 
There among the cobbles
Lie the prickly grains,
Guaranteed to give you
Aches and bitter pains!

ripened pollen grains
hiding in the mallow’s heart—
feast for bee and ant

Mesquite blossoms at daybreak, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
 


soon to be devoured
fragile yellow pollen grains
ravenous the sand
