sun shower

this afternoon

sad news

the passing of a dear friend

and loved one

earlier

visits from a blue jay

shining sun

falling rain

and now 

calm

quiet

heavy hearts

waking up to...

a 'special air quality statement'...

'Wildfire smoke can be harmful to everyone's health even at low concentrations'

on a day

with an air quality advisory

due to all the smoke

from the wildfires

your

lungs 

ethereal

bright sun

leafing out

and days of

lemon

butterflies 

from the skies

some much needed rain

before the heat returns

~

thoughts for all of those

in harm's

way

robins singing

let's get to work
