#Wordless Wednesday
Full Circle
rainbow of colors
scattered autumn leaves wind swept –
lingering seagull
the crane has come home
cherry blossom in full bloom
second chance at love
sunflower stands tall
blue sky on memorable
summer day, no clouds
butterfly on bush
alone, gorging on nectar
wings color of beer

big bold sunflower
bowing after the rain storm
reflects in puddles
morning stroll on beach
skirting around breaking waves
holding hands – making love
seagulls squawk and dive
feast on rain storm’s new bounty
moves at lightning speed
in mountain garden
peony is in full bloom
nightingale’s solo
