Blind Instinct

Moving to to Port Angeles after living 32 years in Blaine, Washington, was a lonely venture.  I forgot what it was like to be without a shopping compass or someone to get advice from.   So I made an adventure out of my predicament and within a couple of minutes from home came upon a small strip mall with a complement of stores and the oddest collection of  bird nests I’d ever seen.

Tiny Him

A beautiful little flurry,
whipped past my window today.
Always in a hurry,
a loner I’d say.
A whirling dervish, a pollinating vector.
Observe, but leave Tiny Him to his nectar.
