They sit
together,
best friends,
under the
mesquite
while the sun
bakes, they
lay in cool
shadows.

Sometimes
I find
the sweetest,
heartfelt
notes of love,
and I am
thankful for
my daughter.

In celebration?

You know you are
in a red state
or at least in Arizona
when you see this
at the children’s
emergency room.

Sometimes a
soaky, bubbly
bath
is just what
the kids need.

So precious
her wings
alight in the
setting sun.
Until she
makes this face.

Lily
Even soy  milk
splashed in
a puddle
is no match
for her long
pink tongue.

(I keep taking pictures of other things, but my pets have been the best shot of the day lately.)

Alice
Newest Cat
we still do
not know you
very well.
You like to sleep
by my feet
as long as they
do not move.

Mean Kitty
She grows nicer
as she ages.
Just don’t try
to touch that
silky fur.
