late summer heat
the well traveled path
through wildflowers

late summer
the background sounds
of crickets

dragon’s breath-
the sun you can see
through the haze

dried and gone to seed
a thistle becomes
asymmetrical

late bloomer-

about me

the thistle takes on
a new beauty

quiet part…
out loud a little one asks
“when will it end?”

it was
“fragile as a whisper”

the clouds
from yesterday
have moved on
a quiet reminder
of how it all goes

taking a break
