P for ABC Wednesday


ABC Wednesday offers the letter P as prompt this week. Thank you, Ms. Nesbitt!






Pend O'Reille,
my lake of choice.
Because my early years
as well as later vacations
took place here,
this place is tightly tied
to everything I hold dear.

Two Haiku and Fiery Sunset

For One Deep Breath prompt: 'Closeness'


Four alarm sunset
Hugging tree-pocked mountainside
Flashes unity

clutch of local crones
brown bag Monday at old park
Recall third grade days

Perseids, ISS and ice cream


Midmorning approached as we converged on the family campsite from several different locations - by several different conveyances.

Before the sky colored from dusk to indigo, an ice cream maker emerged from a large box and a multitude of coolers were soon depleted of their largesse - milk, cream, flavorings, ice, ice and more ice as well as a container of rock salt.

The night ceiling was scratched with star sketched lines. Several filmy clouds parted to reveal the International Space Station, with newly-docked Endeavor, crossing the distant stage.

While overhead magic, far from city lights, exhibited the great August show, we consumed freshly churned ice cream atop fruit cobbler!

I could live my entire life in August!

Contrast

curdled clouds
scatter phantom shapes
…humpbacked moon

Water


spring runoff
floods low flung washes
lichen spreads


shadowy rivers
hold root bound secrets of birch
clouds eclipse the moon


rain alters
massive limestone cliffs
hourglass sand


motorboat
planes the indigo
waking waves

Fibonacci of Pend O'Reille

waking waves from sleeping water
