toes and roots dig deep
garden girl searches, enjoys;
dines on spring color
barefoot, bare-root seek
connect with God’s fertile earth
nourishment for girl and plant

look! bursts of purple
shout joyfully, spring arrives!
hope sprouts from its rest

model flashback of my grand, Autumn
croaking greenery
hides hungry peeper intent
on locating friends

land, pause, freeze, and look
what’s a bird to do? can’t move
winter’s sticky tape
hop, hop, hop-three jumps
and you are there, discover
snowy hidden treats
different bird tracks;
walk, waltz, snoop: toes in, toes out
winter hides the food
land, hop, walk

Winter in the Yakima Valley
Monet wanted me to send out her greetings and wishes for a wonderful and joyful new year!
From her humans (aka slaves), we also hope you have a beautiful 2023!
color splash welcomes
beacon against monotone
