Preflight

She waits for the breath that will roar through the sky, to conquer the clouds and to vanish on high...

Hazel's Quite Vigil

High above the quiet room, Hazel claims her throne, perched atop a stack of stories as if the house were all her own. Her bright eyes catch some secret the rest of us can't see, perhaps a bird, perhaps the wind... or just a leaf teasing a curious kitty...

Somehow Hazel made it to the top of my bookshelf... and the thing is a good seven feet tall! She's sitting up there staring out the window, apparently deciding the regular cat-level view just wasn't good enough. I still have no idea how she got up there. Lol!

While the F-14 stole the spotlight, I can't help but cheer for the little F-5 pretending to be a MiG. 😂✈️ Now that this Hollywood bad guy is finally heading into retirement, I figured it deserved one last toast... 🍻

Her Golden Gaze

She slips behind the trees in robes of gold, and paints the scattered clouds with amber light; while in the flooded fields her gaze is told, a mirrored glow before she yields to night...

Ever wonder why everyone in vintage photos looks like they just smelled spoiled soup? 🤷‍♂️ Hint: It involves saying "prunes" and questionable dental care...

Quiet Wisdom

Beside the quiet water’s edge it lies, an old log softened by time and skies; its bark now worn like stories gently told, a keeper of wisdom in rings of gold. In evening light, its aged soul shines true, reflected in waters of glassy blue...

Her Golden Wait

The golden reach of an April sunset slants low across the yielding grass, tracing her silvered bark and brittle lace before the winter’s shadows pass...
