Under blue heavens
we listen to the waves roll,
sand between our toes
This year’s theme for Earth Day is Restore Our Earth. This includes goals and actions such as reforestation, regenerative agriculture and sustainable food, plastic cleanups, climate literacy, and citizen science.
Each and every one of us can play a part in healing and preserving our environment.
Close of hot June day—
soft sea breeze, high crescent moon,
cool waves kiss the shore.
We’ve enjoyed a bit of a heat wave this past week, an unusually early occurrence here in the easternmost province of Canada.
I call it a bonus because our summers are notoriously short, and after a long winter and spring, warm sun-filled days are more than welcome. I’m also grateful for the coastal breezes that keep things temperate.

Peaceful winter morn
Dressed in snow – the only sound:
Soft moan of the sea.
I wish this was the view from our yard today, but no. This snap was taken last winter when we had snow. Positively springlike all weekend!

Waking up too soon
dreams dissolve, sleep elusive,
I rub my tired eyes
But then my heart smiles
a new day, a new chance – Life’s
consolation prize.
Do you ever wake up too early?
Or do you like to start every morning at daybreak?

Under a blue sky
a soft breeze while the sun sets;
quintessence of peace
