Preening Season

~ V.J. Knutson

Beauty of the feathered kind
brings me the upmost joy

Red-Bellied Woodpecker

The males don their brightest colours
while the females remain shyly coy.

Common Merganser

Nice to be a spectator, when Spring arrives,
the bright display of breeding birds – oh boy!

(For Nancy Merrill’s A Photo A Week Challenge: Beauty)

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.
