clouds

With my husband off on an adventure,

I quietly enjoyed my morning coffee while sitting outside

and watching these interesting clouds float by.

Saturday morning

watching odd-shaped wisps of clouds

drift across the sky

spiders

HUMP Day Haiku

No, I didn't fall off the planet!

Joining Helen once again for this week's HDH.

Midway through cutting off hosta bloom stalks,

I realized this spider had been using them to secure his web.

(I was REALLY thankful he hadn’t gotten in my hair or

crawled up my arm or... shudder... something worse.)

I left the remaining stalks uncut, 

feeling sorry I had caused so much damage to the web.

Not to worry.

The next morning, a new one was in place.

itsy, bitsy...not!

this industrious spider

rebuilt in one day

waning summer days

ramp up spider construction

webs blocking passage

inside an ‘Iceberg’

rests this tiny arachnid

no phobias here!
