Teacher, photographer, poet. I write a nature haiku every day as an act of creativity. All photos taken on walks around where I live. Interested in fairytales, folklore, botany, ecology, liminal places, and the more than human. Two published pamphlets.

transition into darkness
through flashes of light

I will wear a bright pink coat

time to get ready
to drop the robes of this life
and wear quiet earth

we are the stars in the earth

This is wonderful Bernard, so poignant, and true. I had a similar experience with my own father.

It's a disturbing case

For #poemsabout #mannequin, I write about Elena Milagro de Hoyos and Carl Tanzler. I read about them in a library book when I was quite young, and have never forgotten what I read.
