The little leaf

 The little leaf looked around

Everything seems so big

When on the ground

But the little leaf also 

Understood 

That with fall

Comes more leaves 

And that is good 🍁🍂

Query

 Never question the beauty of things justified by their very existence 

Monarch mosaic

 Monarch mosaic 

Nature never 

Prosaic 

The beauty of mystery

 The beauty of mystery 

That which by the divine 

Created 

To adorn a planet

By love,

Borne

When

 When sleep eludes the sounds of memories come rushing forth 

Waves of moments long ago 

Frightened of the undertow 

Sometimes

 Sometimes we sit with nothing to say

 Volumes spoken by your

Loving ways

Pinks n pretties

 The pinks and pretties that

I look upon

The trees and branches that they are

Growing on 

The simple grace of a day 

Spent in nature’s  quiet way

August 28 is rainbow bridge Remembrance Day

 On this and all other days 

We honor those who 

Passed away.

Those who we miss so much

Those by whom our

Lives were touched.

Your presence near

Though we can neither see nor 

Here it.

Together forever 

Our souls and spirit 

I quiet

 In those moments when no words 

are a run on sentence

Quiet reflection 

Self repentance 

Truce at the feed

 Yesterday the male gem and newbie escalated their dispute to a new level. We observed up to a point then interceded before either one got hurt. They battle for dominance of their flock but know they also need each other. The female gem observes .

Today we went to feed them and were thrilled to see the boys peaceful and accepting of each other and the lady .

Ought um

 i walked the earth, and felt the grass, as the winds tried hard to pass. the sun was warm, the sky a light blue, bees in a swarm, as if they knew, a season yearned for soon to be gone, as fallen leaves will be walked upon. the summer starts to enter her sleep, as winters cold will slowly creep.

Silhouette

 Silhouette on a late summer day

Time to preen 

Then on my way

Newbie

 Newbie walks in his stride

Proud of who he is

With nothing to hide 

National dog day

 Loving 

Wonderful 

Wise 

And loyal 

Today and every day

Our dogs are royal 

So treat them with 

Love and respect 

No better friend 

You will ever get ❤️🐾❤️

Roooooo

 what exactly would you do

if you woke up as a kangaroo.

would you find it very hard

to be a marsupial in your

own or someone else's

yard.

When you love

 When you love 

The warmth that

Surrounds you 

And those within 

Your heartbeat orbits 

Softly embraces

And comforts

The soul 

Your world is whole 

When you love 

Sleep

 The little creatures rest their heads

They know it is time to

Go to bed 

So snuggly together happily

they stay

Until kissed by the dawn

Of a brand new day 

Doves and a sparrow

 🎶Doves and a sparrow in the birdie tree

Enjoying the summer

In harmony 

Letting things be as they be

Doves and a sparrow in the birdie tree 🎶

How still

 How still we stand 

With nothing planned 

We take the day as it

Comes our way

Mine

 I was here first 

I don’t

 share 

Come a little closer 

If you dare🪶😀

Ukraine Independence Day is August 24th

 

Footsteps

 You cannot hear the footsteps of a dove

But their silence sings 

Of kindness and love 

I’d like

I’d like to hold you so you never get hurt

So life couldn’t touch you with its dirt

But how would you learn 

There is so much to know 

If I hold you too tight 

You will never grow

 

Donut cloud

 Once upon a time there was a donut cloud

Who yearned to make thunder very loud

Cloud muttered and sputtered 

While aloft 

Then gleefully realized it was 

Good to be soft 

National senior citizens day

 It’s national senior citizens day 

We could teach you young

Whippersnappers how

To play

We wrote the  book

On being cool 

And before the book

Was written we broke all 

The rules 

Old is gold

Though tarnished a tad

We are good and

Badder than bad 😄

Her beauty

 Her beauty sits 

Embraced by green

Quiet and shy 

Afraid to be seen 

I preen

some feathers are not where 

They should 

But I am still as pretty 

As can be

We all are perfect,

Imperfectly

When

 hold your hand when i open my eyes

and when i close them, you are by my side

when i walk you walk close behind

when i think, you are in my mind

you give me power, the strength to

...perceive

every hour, i need to believe

Monarch please

 Would it be asking too much 

Humanleez 

If you could plant

More flowers and foods 

For me

Ring of roses

 

If he wraps a ring around your heart

Love will only end where love ❤️ starts 🌹

Staring now

 

World orangutan 🦧 day

 We live in forests.

Trees of safe
Warm and green.
Our livelihood
Palace…
This is where we
Have always been.
But each day it
Gets worse for us
As we forage for food.
And play
Our kingdoms erased
Humans please go away!

Happy black cat appreciation day

 Isn’t it a pity that more people don’t appreciate we black kitties 🐈‍⬛ ❤️

Have you ever seen a sparrow tree

 Have you ever seen a sparrow tree

Where little birds grow 

So joyously 

Cardinal too

 I join the feed 

Such fun indeed 

Day

 We’re on the way this beautiful day ❤️🪶🕊

Sometimes

 Sometimes the path you choose is 

Neither win nor lose 

Wishing mountains

 Wishing mountains in the sky

So much to ask you for

But who am I 

Friends

 Friends perhaps not so 

But in the direction of enmity 

We will not go

Blenned

 If I blend in will I be

Losing the quintessential 

Me 

World lizard day

 the lavender lizard was once dull,sad and grey

but then he chased the nasties
away
… he decided to like just
who he pleased
no matter what he was taught
at his elders knees
and with his new friendships
he walked towards the sun
sharing his kindness
with most everyone

be kind, practice tolerance, embrace difference…the world will be a much better, happier place☻
