lime curtain
will soon fall
to our feet,

revealing limbs,
revealing sky -
an end to autumn

Here's Mr Crow for #BirdOfTheDay on the theme #takeoffs

He looks like he is falling off his perch rather than taking off! ☺️

Good evening from me, see you tomorrow 👋 📷 🪶

A photograph of a Crow that has one foot on and one off a post that he had been perched on. He is leaning forward to the left and looking down as if he is about to fall off his perch!

Beyond My Curtain

Gust steals nut
Evening the score
Squirrel breaks wind

Short story in ALT: ⬇️
Here is a shot of Sassy the squirrel, outside my writing window. The momentary pause of insult barking allowed me to take a seemingly serene nature photo. But don’t be fooled; this grey bark licker is giving me the stink eye. It’s a bright day—light through tender leaves frames the scene, and our forest beyond is a lovely blurred backdrop. Sassy is leaning hunched on the poplar limb, all hands and feet gripped tightly to the bark. This side-body-view shows the elegant curl of its fluffy tail, hooked beneath the limb for balance. Sassy’s black almond-shaped eye stares into your soul. Bonus story: Five years ago, I received daily belligerent visits from this fluffer-nutter. Each morning, I’d wake and peacefully start the day with a few paragraphs before breakfast, and Sassy would watch me while barking and doing an interpretive bristle-tailed shuffle along the limb. One blustery day, the south wind snatched a peanut from those teensy hands. The wild-eyed rodent thrashed around afterwards like it was a premeditated assault. Which led to my free verse haiku: Beyond My Curtain Gust steals nut Evening the score Squirrel breaks wind I will say this about Sassy: “That squirrel passionately barked up every tree, and made our world chuckle.” I miss the long walks we’d take together. With one eye peeled for a drop assassination, I strolled as Sassy stalked me with the bare minimum of twig snaps and rustling leaves. When I paused, taking a photo, barking would echo down from above. Our loving rivalry will never be forgotten.

What ember—
flame,
of what once reached outward,
now turned inward.

Ash remembers shape,
smoke remembers motion,
and in the hollow left by longing..

The stillness grows—
the seed of truth,
self aware
unmasked when the wanting dies.

This photo of Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany was taken by my brother when he visited it.

#EastCoastKin #ClassicMono #Neuschwanstein #Castle
The castle with its turret towers sits atop a snowy mountain. All the trees are covered with snow, as is the ground. Everything is shades of white, and it looks like a fairy tale.
