Pine trees drooping with
fresh fallen rain, sparkling bright.
Small pine cones growing.

Pansies blooming out
of an old broken teapot.
Recycled beauty.

Campanula blooms
glowing blue against their green.
Lighting up my day.

Why does cat always
take my comfortable spot?
He’s a heat vampire.

June 26, 2012

Bleeding heart plant fades,
giving way to lily blooms.
Spring turns to summer.

June 25, 2012

Cat gets up last from
the warm, snug bed, yawning wide.
Then he finds new bed.

June 24, 2012

Eagle gliding high
over south Oak Bay, hungry.
Looking for his lunch.

June 23, 2012

Entering my room
is fresh, dewy air, like fall.
Feels like October.

June 22, 2012

Dark clouds brew over
the bay, as I’m walking by.
The wind whips my hair.

June 21, 2012

Spring gives way, summer
arrives with brand new flowers.
My spring flowers fade.

June 20, 2012

Hydrangea with
Lacecap white flowers in shade.
Summer sun shines down.

June 19, 2012

Strawberry finch flies
away from me for safety.
Then he chirps and sings.

June 18, 2012

Squawking seagulls on
the roof of a house by sea.
Crows across the street.

June 17, 2012

Small river otter
plays in shallows of the sea.
He jumps on a rock.

June 16, 2012

Bright azalea
with sweet scent wafting along.
I pause to smell, breathe.

June 15, 2012

California
quails, head bobbing, seek a bush.
While I walk, watching.

June 14, 2012

River otter in
the sea, hunting, frolicking.
Waves crash to the shore.

June 13, 2012

Happy pansies bloom
in old teapots draping down.
Looks like they’re smiling.

Chestnut tree with small
chestnuts growing in the sun.
Nearby a bird sings.

June 11, 2012

Chill morning air drifts
down the street towards our home.
Wind smells like the sea.

June 10, 2012

Aloe on sunny

window sill, growing, changing.

It reaches for sun.

June 9, 2012

Sunlight on wild rose
teasing out scent of beauty.
But under are thorns.

June 8, 2012

Bird songs drift through the
open window, reminding
me of spring, nesting.

June 7, 2012

The rain brings with it
lush green growth and bright flowers.
But I long for sun.

June 6, 2012

Finally the sun
returns with its glorious
rays and warmth to us.

June 5, 2012

I sleep until cat
wakes me up in the night. Why?
For more food or pets?

June 4, 2012

Relentless cat comes
to seek out my lap and pets.
I’m never alone.

June 3, 2012

More clouds in the sky,
making this not look like June.
When will the sun come?

June 2, 2012

Blackberry brambles
growing outside my window.
A promise of fruit.

June 1, 2012

A new month arrives
fresh with growth, green, and moisture.
Rainy June the first.
