               Through view of lens, she found her joy again—two smiles and spirits in summer day in age of imagination and play.                 Through the lens, greater world blocked away, and she saw only the smiles and happiness of their little world made in closeness and share of surroundings as lived and perceived.                “Look […]

        He sat on the porch in the afternoon, shade of the wide-spread maple before.  Its leaves were darkened on shadowside from sun, and for the first time in many weeks, aside from storms, there was neither excesssive heat nor burden.  T-shirt, linen shorts, shade of the tree; there was a comfort.         […]

               Anna read the words, whole of story’s tell.  After, she blushed through sun tan of summer face, warm-rose behind the sun-riched hue.                “I want to write art,” he told, “to write it as it seems to me—reality or dreams.  I want to write of romance.  I want to write of love; and too […]

               Sunflowers, daisies, and lupine dappled in bloom and color of glade.  Yellows, white, and columned magenta-violet hues flowered in the sun.                 Each step, they rose climbing nearer to life and source of bloom; sun’s burn in the high and thinning air.                Granite peaks surrounded in crown place sacred in their hearts; visitation […]
