chilled wine
forgotten on the beach

dawn
Carpe Diem #1214 dawn
~
sparrows singing
the sky slowly lightens
day begins
change of clothes
Carpe Diem #1213 change of clothes
~
warm woolen sweater
packed away in a trunk
flip-flop season
summer fireworks
Carpe Diem #1212 outdoor fun
~
behind the Maple
fireworks burst in white sparks
the ground trembles
Summer Sisters
Summer Sisters – a triolet
They stand across the garden, waving
wearing pretty summer frocks
a little flirty – but behaving
They stand across the garden, waving
blazing sun and storm clouds braving
zinnia, rose, and hollyhocks
They stand across the garden waving
wearing pretty summer frocks
Happy Summer to all the poets in the Pub!
Out Of Service
d’Verse Poets Pub – Poetics: And the sign said….
Mish is tending bar over at the pub today and she has us seeing signs
—
I saw a bus one day that had Out Of Service where the next stop header would be. I wondered what it would be like to tell everyone I was ‘out of service’.

Out Of Service
I am an empty bus
no stops to make
no riders to deliver
downtown, uptown
suburbs, the mall
the next destination, my choice
I turn the radio on – loud
nobody complains
open windows and let the wind blow through
no one to smile at, argue with
tell jokes to
no frustrations, complications – no fun
I halt my empty bus
at your stop
will you ride with me
I’m a Believer
Quadrille #35 – pepper
Kim is tending bar at the Pub today. We’re celebrating Sgt Pepper’s 50th anniversary. Really! 50!!! Tell me it isn’t so.

I’m a Believer
It was Sgt Pepper who broke my heart
he had a Rubber Soul
I walked The Long and Winding Road alone
Mr Moon was waiting and I whispered
Do You Want to Know a Secret?
I’m The Fool on the Hill believing
love survives
Simply Me
“I Am Made of…” (Poetry and Flash Fiction with Magaly
~
Simply Me
I am blue ink
and garden dirt
with subtle notes of lavender
I write with my heart
and dig with my muse
to the depths of my very soul
solitude is my friend
my inspiration is silence
mixed with the soft music of nature
Marsh
We recently visited the Millbrook Marsh in State College, PA. A great place for fishing, bird watching, and plant and insect identification.
This is the main education building
I really liked this small building with ivy growing over the door and painted walls
This painted bench was in one of the fields
What a great gate leading to the pollinator garden
Fire Museum
This Fire Museum in Greensburg, PA, was founded in 1969 by members of the local volunteer fire departments. It is open by appointment only but those garage doors are worth stopping for a look.
