Sometimes I take off my glasses
and let the world soften,
out of focus and into gentle colors.
I close my eyes and let the
sun and shadow take turns
warming and cooling my face.
I let the shades bleed without edges
or definition until it becomes one.

I am hosting at dVerse, and for the past two days we have been playing with macro photography, and with micropoetry. I had a hard time choosing from my photos and finding inspiration. Then Po decided to sit next to my computer and bird watch. The light was perfect and she was so still. So here you have a macro of our cat, Po, and micro about her.

book pages on the side
of the road flutter like
the wind lifting the
feathers of a dead bird,
I pass by and mourn both.
~
I pass the river where the
snapping turtle lives and
wonder how she fares
and if she will wander
again come spring in
her larger than life
shell across the road.

Who encourages the
encouragers? Cares
for the ones who give
care? Who holds up
those who hold us
up? How can we
say we didn’t know?
~
Birds sit hopeful
on last year’s
bowed sunflower
heads. Soon my
feathered friends.
Soon.

It is Open Link Night for dVerse Poets Pub. There are some great poems already going live on blogs from all over. Stop by, read some poetry and leave some love. Share your own, it’s open to all poets!
Today I am musing about things I saw on my drive yesterday, and the memories certain places bring up. Some are short enough to be #micropoetry and others not quite.
