Decision pending

Stands a wise old tree,
for passers by to notice—
waiting at crossroads.

Samesies, but not

So much difference
and yet so much in common—
life-giving plants, us.

Spot it

a leaf-less tree with a full moon barely visible from behind it — Can you find the moon?

Playing hide and seek,
a treasure in sunset skies,
awaiting hunters.

Dilemma

Mildly-trodden path
calls me to a promised land—
to go or stay, awed?

Sight to behold

Basking in sunshine,
showing off to greedy world—
strawberry bushes.
