August in the Park

at the top of the mountains

flowers are still blooming

colors seem to be softening under the heat of summer's sun

greens

blues

and 

clear waters

sooth the heat of the days

clouds dance along the peaks

as though they are the mountain's breath

daydream beautiful

Spring's Glory

A beautiful day at the lake

before the storm came in

enchanted with the rocks

the light

flow of water

wandered up the road

to find the raging waters

flowers grace our days

snow melt fills our river banks

a unique offering of Trillium 

with 6 petals instead of 3

 

the threshold of spring is in our past

we are in her full glory

Late Summer Day

I wandered into the mountains the other day

found a rainbow in a waterfall

creek water aqua turquoise

made my heart sing

watched the sunlight mingling with trees

does this green thrill you?

it does me

i listened to the water sing

and dance

visited this lake that sunny day

dinned on late summer huckleberries

watched the sun paint shadows on the enormous mountains

as it began to set

~

it was a good day

may you walk in beauty
