Bright jewels of the pond

Look at you, feeder or foe?

Sinuous beauty

Water iris

Fey wetland beauties

Nodding in breezes, scented

Dragonfly feeders

Beautiful Chihuly Sculpture at the Denver Botanic Gardens

The Creature That Ate The Mushrooms I Wanted To Photograph, Guess What? You're Modeling!

Pine sawyer beetle

Hopes I might be good eating

I am far too tough

Yet tender, gentle

I do not begrudge his try

Can't help it, small bot

Down and back you go

Ground dwelling mushroom eater

Cleanse palate of me

Home again, again

Searching my beetle buddy

"Bite" in top search terms

Given enough time

He'd work his way all through me

I ain't standing still

Columbine Time

Beside the mountain waterfall

My true heart love and I

Tasted mists so fresh and cool

Watching wind-tossed columbines

The hummingbird was made to dip

Whilst feeding at the sky bells

The wind sped him upon his way

To the next set of blue-white shells

I felt his lips upon my neck

Closing my eyes to the sun

Completely at peace in our little spot

My true love and I are one

Seduction Of the Bee

Poised, the iris wing

Open, catch the sunrise bug

On thy golden beard

Luridly sweet scent

Flying lovelorn, know not why

Here lies its desire

Velvet tongues of beard

Sensual pollens, heady

Immersed, crazy need

You

Beloved treasure

The pleasure of my life, you

Sweet companion'd share

Sorrows divided

Happiness multiplied well

Memory keeps love

My arm's magic ring

Inside, how deep you feel us

Abiding passion
