I Want to Believe

A piece breaking from the soft somber felt of the sky...

the cork of the bottle of sunlight?

a hole through which the Universe to peek at us?

perchance, a fluffy UFO?

Taking Turns

This pair of cardinals has been gracing my backyard for many years and I was very worried about them during the brutal cold we had a few days ago, minus 18 F or minus 36 F with the windchill...

But here they are, on this balmy day of 12 F... Big sigh of relief...

They're always taking turns. He eats, she watches. She eats, he watches. Could be also because there's not enough space for them to eat at the same time... Welcome back!

He eats...

She watches...

He watches...

She eats...

Another Winter

white birds

flock from heavens

howling savage songs

piercing eyes

—still incredulous—

with their beaks like needles

sewing trees and squirrels

into stillness

black birds

rise from earth

to meet them

in mad whirlwinds

of war and play

heaven and earth are one

the same harsh stars

above and below

only inside

a light

Merry Christmas!

hmmm, what is winter?

snow snow snow

funny things in the snow

 pensive in the snow

funny colors in the air

winter is nice

Merry Christmas, everybody!!! May your hearts and lives be filled with love and joy!
