It's August already? --poems & pics

Spirea cluster in summer

her dreadlocks

dancing in rhythm with

the jump rope

                                                          Last year's dianthus

60th birthday

his goal: running from Ola

to Little Rock

singing along

in the grocery store "...Once, twice,

three times a la-a-dy."

                                                  Billy at work at Cracker Barrel, Bryant

spinning

in thin air

the redbud leaf

venetian blind

slicing sunshine

labored breathing

after sunset

cicadas

and the gibbous moon

August first

finding a Christmas napkin

under desk papers
