This week's theme: Ocean

Slide below the waves
The current drags me away
Where ever I go (I cannot say)

Now I'm swimming free
Deeper down into the sea
The water becomes (what I breathe)

No reason to hide
Flowing onward with this tide
And I see the world (with blue eyes)

Aquatic city
The coral teeming with life
In the world's great reefs

Out just past the waves
A pod of dolphins swim South
Beautiful creatures

Conch shell at my feet
I pick it up and listen
For the ocean waves

Sparkling white sand,
The roaring crash of the waves,
Walking the shoreline.

Butterfly glides down
Alighting on a flower
To gather nectar

This week's theme: Butterflies

Caterpillar crawls
Slowly up the tree branches
Create a chrysalis

After time passes
The butterfly emerges
Completely transformed

The wind grows cooler
The butterflies fade away
As Autumn beckons

Like leaves on the wind,
The butterfly flies on by,
Riding the current.

They flutter on by,
The Monarchs of summertime,
Orange against the sky.

Unfortunately

We had a Border Collie
Her name was Buttons

This week's theme: Pets!

A kitty named Keen
Was my best buddy years back
Then the house got sold

Now the new owners
Take care of the keen kitty
And I'm glad they do

With a wagging tail
And some happy greeting barks
C.J. says hello!

(C.J.'s a happy little beagle.)

On this cool morning
I saw my breath as I walked
Through the parking lot

Geese flying south
The cycle of migration
As colder air comes

This week's theme: Summer's End

September 4 - 6:

Golden colored clouds
In the setting of Summer
Foretells of changes

Girls in bikinis
Soon to wear warming sweaters
As the cool air comes

The beaches empty
The boardwalk soon desolate
Kiddies back in school

This week's theme: Trees

Outside the window
My Japanese Red Maple
That grew up with me
