Just Wondering ~


who
is this arm-weary
lady
tugging reticent frost-bitten
plants
from
the ground
and
why doesn't she seek warmth
from
the autumn-chilled air
before the sun
disappears
he
wondered
as he braved a closer
look
at the crest of the hill


"it's you"
"you're the why"
her heart
quietly smiled
in reply
~ ~ ~
he thought it best
to return
to the others
at the edge of the woods
 ~ ~ ~
this is part of LL Barkat's
please
feel free to join her
~ ~ ~
and it's all of you who visit
here
who make my heart smile as well

She is so pretty. I can see the question mark written in her expression.

And now I'm smiling. You can just see him wondering about you. He's so elegantly beautiful. I would have stayed out in the cold longer to watch him, too.

What a beautiful image. Alas, I saw too many of them on the side of the road as they had gotten too close as I was driving from Florida to Virginia.

We so often see ourselves reflected in nature, if only we stop to see, listen and learn!

What a look! What beautiful eyelashes! He just walked up while you were in the garden? Things like this are so wondrous, I look on them as a sign of reassurance from God.

There's something very arresting about being watched by an animal. I've never been watched by a deer though. Brilliant picture. How close do they come I wonder.

Oh. My. Goodness!

That's it. I'm getting a big girl camera for Christmas if I have to buy it for myself.

Well, maybe a tween camera.
