NaPoWriMo #29
raiments of nature
flowers, leaves, and grass woven
Gaia’s green garments
Daughter of the White Fox, Sister of the Otters
raiments of nature
flowers, leaves, and grass woven
Gaia’s green garments
curiosity
overcomes reservations
steaming up my lens
meerkat sentinel
watching, ever vigilant
guarding family
Winter’s white cloak melts
before the green gown of spring
covers Her body
their playful patterns
like painted puzzle pieces
African Wild Dogs
first tentative blooms
making their way through the mud
color explosion
before the greening
the rains come and the snow melts
the season of mud
watching cameras
broadcasting the miracle
peregrines nesting
The National Aviary’s FalconCam at the University of Pittsburgh’s Cathedral of Learning
kangaroo kisses
a warm whiskery welcome
greeting me each spring
mercurial spring
bringing storms with wind and hail
to purge the winter
