Tender Places

Beautiful words with a message. Thank you, Holly! ❤️🌹

Tender Places

The small lake shimmers with light

reeds rustle beneath

the feet of a fawn.

Leaning forward her pink tongue

curls backward

spattering the sweetness of life

into her nose and eyes.

Spotted ears pull sideways,

heeding the sigh of the forest,

the breath of a breeze.

The kiss of sunlight transforms

green to autumn gold, brown and rust.

beyond the edge of the wood

summer collides with fall

in  tender places of the wild.

Do No Harm

Wild Life

It’s a sweet, imaginative piece in a parking lot.

I mean, here’s Toronto’s cityscape, CN Tower and all, with a parrot and elephants.

… and a BUNNY!

The wall dints in & out.

BEST PART OF THE MURAL IS THE CAT BELOW

Around the final corner is a trapped elk.

At least I caught his reflection.

Not only was he trapped by a car,

… he was imprisoned, which is how I found the painting. I had to find out how to get a better shot of him. That’s when I found the rest!
