 i have the best friends!
friends who send me their samples,
their thoughts,
their critiques
all essential.
 a touch of blue in the garden soil
 camoflage
 test bale
 a dead youth
 bladder campion
 potential paper!
 more potential paper
 chance
composition on the roadside
a richness
happy father's day
to all the dads.
my dad has been gone a long time.
a man who told stories
even a tall tale
and who loved his
richness of daughters.

  1. Ah, the riches of your land with it's life/death playing out nature's song, and the richness of your friends, and the sisterhood of the fatherless in which I share, and how we become sll that once was and will become again-- Everything potentially something else.

  3. Such a wonderful set of images!! And to think you pulled it together even while pulling out your hair in preparation is even more impressive!
