Note: I didn't have my camera the day I took this photo but I did have my LG cellphone. So, I stopped and snapped this fence and the beautiful eastern redbud growing beside it. Happy Thursday~

along our side of the farms.
Grackles and other eastern birds flit to
one side and then the edge.
Their tiny lungs filled of
spring song. These...
these uncaged songs mapped
by memory's territories
live somewhere beneath blue skies and a
habit that holds my blue- gray
eyes... still. It's in this stillness I'm headed
towards an open field and a lone oak.
Napowrimo day 5: The challenge was to write a Golden Shovel. The last word in every sentence is another person's poem word for word. Instead of using someone else's poem I used one of my own haiku called gray headed oak.

The above poem is one of three I will be sharing at my writer's group tonight. The climbing roses are my friend's. I had the pleasure of visiting her home a few weekends back.

Today I had a strong urge to post something here and would like to say thank you to everyone for your patience in my long absence... I've truly missed blogging and seeing what everyone has been up to lately... Hopefully I won't let everyone down during this new jumpstart. Luckily I have lots of pictures to share and a few new poems too...
I'll start with a haiku I wrote about some great blue herons. A friend of mine came upon eight great blue herons one day while out taking pictures and was gracious enough to share with me and another good friend the location. When we arrived at said location we saw six heron and eight nests... My haiku reflects this scene...

a groundhog sits 'mong
tall green grasses, mountainside
a weekend voyeur
Saturday my daughter and I ran some errands in town. During which time we past a local pizza joint. When I looked out the window I saw this groundhog nosing around the mountainside. Once we got turned around I didn't see him anymore and thought I had just imagined seeing the groundhog, until... I saw movement again. Sadly my camera settings weren't set on the best setting to capture the moment and what came out was an underexposed picture. The SUV's movement didn't help either... but, I wanted to share him with you anyway as I thought it odd he was on the mountain instead of lower ground.
Later, red-orange blushed the evening sky as geese flew into the sunset breaking v formation only once to reform. It was a great way to end the day.

an anomaly
sits alongside the pond's edge
turtle head rock... found.
My husband found this anomaly pondside at a nature preserve one evening. He thought it might be a good photo opportunity for me to share. I tried to take creative shots of this rock but nothing satisfied me and in the end I settled for ordinary. What do you think it looks like?
Also, this past Sunday my daughter and I went hiking (we came back a sight muddier than we'd planned for) when we came upon a turtle in the road. He was poised for a journey across the back road behind our house. After taking a few pictures my daughter gently picked him up and returned him to the weeds. Safe from injury, we drove away.
