Summer is Fruiting

on a gentle breeze

i heard the mountains call to me

in the forest i found berries 

ripe as can be

raspberries 

and 

huckleberries

huckleberries are a treasured food in Montana!

i dinned next to this river

listening to it's song

enjoying the stir of the air that it brought to life

mountain ash offering berries for the birds

splashes of color

for our eyes

savoring each blossom

treasuring the tiny realm

butterflies basked in the sun

enjoying rain after a hot summer

~

lovely late summer days to you

Breathing in Summer

summer is true

to its spirit this year

hot days

cool nights

thunder storms

most days

flowers and grasses blooming

insects thriving

and occasional rains

my heart sings

sharing with Rose's
August heART
feel free to join in
