That loud, sharp visitor, big and blue
He knows my bounty is always free
Friendship wanes when the seed is few
Still, I’m glad he remembers me

Photo of a Blue Jay at the feeding station. It is facing the camera, head cocked, with one shiny, black eye looking directly at the viewer.

The road to a renewed you -
A silky slide?
Mmm, maybe not.
But the view is spectacular!

A darkening Monarch butterfly chrysalis hangs from a garden post, smooth and green with tiny gold spots. The Monarch's adult orange and black colors can be barely seen within. A newly emerged, orange and black, Monarch butterfly perches on pink milkweed blooms, wings in closed profile.

No shrine is needed
The wind, the light, and laughter
Are worship enough

A lone bird (probably a Turkey vulture) glides through a soft blue sky, wings spread wide among drifting white clouds.

Crestfallen? Pause here.
Routines can bend and still heal.
Even the moon rests.

Me: I should be able to think my way to inner peace by now.

My BFF of 45 years: quietly changes her number and relocates overseas.
