A hummingbird made a nest on a hanging “dragonfly” decoration on the patio. There was a very large, dull green and brown garden snake in the garage.
Two huge, playful neighborhood dogs knocked me over onto the grass. (I’m ok). A coyote jauntily crossed the street as I was taking a walk. I came within one foot of a squirrel and he didn’t even move – he was certainly not afraid of me.
There are rattlesnakes on the hiking path up a hill near my house.
Zoo animals are mating, bears are frolicking in the woods, fish are jumpin’ and the cotton is high … (referencing a really old song entitled “Summertime” written by George Gershwin, sung by Ella Fitzgerald).

Changing the rhythm of lives from Nome to Perth. Men left the planet on a falcon and a dragon … To contemplate this circular vision from space. Asking, “How can we protect – save – the human race?” Telescope down to the U.S. of A., the land of my birth … Fifty shapes come together as home and hearth. Narrow the site further to a Golden State place … Where beauty can survive behind a covered face. Pinpointing even a more specific area … Is a safe, special haven … Santa Clarita. We are enduring and abiding new technological humor … And … my failed attempt at iambic pentameter.
