Breaths of Summer

 Great Brook Farm State Park, Carlisle, Massachusetts

   Hiding in the woods on this hot day... 

Masked

Appleton Farms, Ipswich, Massachusetts

       With a sparkle in that eye… 

Their World

Appleton Farms, Ipswich, Massachusetts

Spring is the time 

 when birds build nests and 

  become defensively aggressive towards the enemies,

  

   to protect their young.

 

Over there,

 high up in the tree crown,

  a Hawk is being harassed and forced to leave.

    

   We do not want you HERE... 

Here As Well

Tidmarsh, Plymouth, Massachusetts

Almost missed. 

 Minuscule brightness on the yellow petals.   

   Resting down there, near my boots... 

Wings Matter

Rocky Hill, Groton, Massachusetts

Ospreys are here.

 Circling above their nests,  

   inspiring... 

Awaken

Rocky Hill, Groton, Massachusetts

Along leafy wings.

  Through breaths of the moments,

    into the world of clouds.

   

 Stop,

  observe,   

    and listen to the songs of spring... 

Mutual Hearts

Great Brook Farm State Park, Carlisle, Massachusetts

Flowers, on their way.

 Coloring, attracting all the eyes.

  Some by chance, 

      others by intent.

 Those golden gifts, 

 

  to share and uphold their lives...
