Fluttering petals

Kissed by the gentlest wind

Graceful butterfly

Seedling rears its head

Excited for the day’s sun

Just like a child

Hell On Earth Has Come

Hell on earth has come

Scorching both sand and pavement

Sonoran summer

NOTE: As I post this it is 103 degrees F and we have not yet reached the hottest part of our day yet. The projected temperature by Saturday is slated to be 118 degrees F.  Summer has arrived in Arizona!

Welcome warmth returns

Sunshine and short sleeves abound

Early desert spring

A Walk In The Sun

A walk in the sun

Beams raining down from Heaven

The promise of spring

Fall in the Desert

Fall in the desert

The most beautiful season

Warm and inviting

Oppressiveness gone for now

Knowing that it shall return

Touch of Subtle Wind

Touch of subtle wind

Caressing suntanned skin

Caribbean dream

Warm Sun on My Face

Warm sun on my face

Desert breeze whisking my skin

Southwestern summer

The desert knows no seasons

For it is its own master

Grey and Sullen Day

Grey and sullen day

Sun muted by heaven’s cloak

From window chairs view

Birds and bees care little

Refusing to deviate

A glorious show

Playing out on natures stage

Standing ovation

Summer Upon Us (Haiku)

Summer upon us

The desert knows no seasons

With winter’s goodbye
