first day of summer
passing the pungent smell
of the white lilies
~ ~ ~ ~
DETERMINED MEETS RECONCILED
I give
up, like Richard
Allin did with squirels.
Since the feral cats didn't leave
during
my trip
and the tame ones
won't come inside after
they boarded for 10 days, I feed
them all.

AT 75
They say
I'm aging well.
"Such pretty skin," they say.
What they don't know is makeup hides
brown spots.

mom & baby cats
cavorting in shaded grass~
heat wilts the 'mums

eating tomatoes
from Mississippi . . . bought
on our way back home

3-hour birthday lunch
4 friends basking in one's
77th
