#AwakeAugust2016
two bright red cardinals
darting among branches and leaves
of nearby ash
intermittent resting and plunging
in the iridescent glimmer
along roof-line
clogged gutter
full of water

Searching for small stones encourages you to keep your senses on the “alive and alert” status. Involve yourself with a new set of eyes, ears, nose, mouth, fingers, feelings and mind. In short … OPEN, OPEN, OPEN!

I do envy you the beauty of the cardinal. We do not have them here but do have blue jays and red breasted robins.
