Hi,
Recently, I looked out the window and watched the birds and turkeys enjoying the birdseed. One of my small pleasures in life is watching the wildlife that lives in our forest. I love to capture it in photographs and poetry.
Here are some of the pictures I’ve taken over the years of our animal visitors, along with some recent poetry.
POEMS
it took a moment
sitting amongst giant trees
to hear their wisdom
my serene moment
in-between scheduled events
fall-hued butterfly
captures my wandering gaze
in life’s reality show
PHOTOS
I’m still trying to get a photo of an opossum, coyote, owl, hawk, and mountain lion. For the mountain lion and coyote picture—I will stay safely in the house.
NOTE: Had another busy week with a sick grand who had an antibiotic reaction. She is completely recovered, but that was scary. Fingers crossed for this week!
Animals and nature will always be a big part of my writing. Embrace your inner child by exploring. Denise
