thunderstorm
rumbles slowly through
cricket still sings
umbrella
raised for the long
walk home
sandpiper
the newly emerged island
gives rest for a nest
illustration
the final piece in telling
the story
still dark
the sun will soon reveal
my tea and me
thoughts
growing into
words
a sketch
tells the story . . .
page by page
a dog
ready for a greeting
short leash
walking sticks
propel me up
the hill
great blue heron
wading deep in the river
wide wings lift it up
40 years
the joining of two
lives together
sparrow
at our feet searching
for seeds
daylight arrives
over the harbour
seagull cries
silence
the wait of
being
sudden darkness
the storm arrives
unexpectedly
forgetting
to go outside
broken toe
black cat
a visit for
scratched ears
unexpected mail
tell me more about
your book
a swing
peace on the evening
breeze
construction
finding the slow way
to the beach
words
translated for
friends
open bible
mom's morning
moments
backyard swing
sitting outside watching
the trees
bloom
a word for this year on
a rubber stamp
morning tea
sitting lost in
my thoughts
one shoe
protecting a broken toe
barefoot weather
side by side
reading the
same book
hands
tapping rhythm on
the furniture
crabgrass
tacking down the
brown patches
bass guitar
rhythm to hang
the lyrics on
