Tiny Spheres, Mist and Light


a glorious summer walk today
found mist in a wee tiny web
looking 
feeling  
entering another realm
how many realms exist in our world

to shift our perception 
from the mundane
to the tiny
we are changed

Tiny and Precious, Forget Me Not


tiny and blue
lavender in hue
even dressed in pink
yellow and white
donning dew drops
a summer's delight
forget me not

A Forest Walk

lush and green as well
perfect for the fungi folk
to rise from the earth

with snowmelt
and Spring rainfall
