FIRING IT

The second favorite place for barbecuing is this spot just before the bush begins.
So beautiful at night

and we really do like big fires

NIGHT JASMINE

I AM COMING HOME TO YOU

I am coming home to you.

 you just don't know it yet

CREATURES OF THE NIGHT

An African night moth. Her wings are pierced with two leaf like patterns.
As dark as the night she is.
And 7 inches long on my kitchen wall.

And her equally stately companion fallen asleep in the early morning hours showing her extraordinary wings. Burnt orange is the color of her wings.

Every Child's Good Things

The words that I am going to write are not mine. They are not " my own right words " but they are so beautiful that I want to rewrite them humbly.
 And when you read them you will understand my obsession with words. 

I, NATURE, give to you, to be yours for ever and ever, the right to the free enjoyment of this world. 

I give to you the years that are before you, and the world that is about you.

I give to you the Sun by day and the Moon by night, with the power to wake as the Earth rolls into the light of the Sun....

and the power to sleep when the night comes.
