A Birthday Party!

Surrounded by family, 

with bright balloons and party dresses,

clothes, books and toys popped out of gifts; tacos, cupcakes and a piñata

spins a child’s head in circles.

Happy Birthday, Tatum!

Magnolia blossoms 

opened to brilliant sunshine 

merely because it was time.

“The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers, 

but for the wide world’s joy.”

~ Henry Ward Beecher

On an Afternoon Walk - Bearded

A delicacy that gives a lie 

to the shade that is to come.

“True delicacy is not a fragile thing.”

~ James Broughton, poet
