I headed to the mountains for
Summer Solstice
enjoyed
patches of tiny twinflowers
frothed-up plant sap
made by the froghopper bug
quit magical looking up close
the clouds
appeared and disappeared
throughout the day
moody or bright
larkspur often look as though they are dancing
to me
these flowers, dogbane,
seem to be celebrating life
spring did not offer many mushroom sightings
yet
there were a family of these
on an old dead log
love how they came up through bug holes
heading home....
one poppy bud this year
it bloomed on Summer Solstice!
Exquisite!

Lovely Summer to you All!
