Bee In the Asters

Fall is just a few days away and so the bees are working even harder than they had all summer.  If there was one bee on this plant there was a dozen.  Not only that, but wee moths were also flitting among the blossoms.  Oh, the little things.

Bees in the asters

They know what's 'round the corner

Busy, busy bees

Busy are the moths

Preparing for what's to come

Flitting little moths

A time to prepare

So the asters offer all

And beauty besides

Thanks be to God!

Big Thompson River

Big Thompson River

Estes Park, CO

Two years ago this month this, what appears to be, little river flooded Estes Park and tore down the Big Thompson Canyon flooding the cities of Ft. Collins and Boulder along the way.  It took eight lives and caused billions of dollars in damage.  The canyon has a history of severe flash flooding, but I am always in awe of the canyon beauty and its river, but I am reminded that the serenity I experience now can change in a heartbeat when severe weather comes.

A gentle river

Hides a frightening secret

It's a strong torrent

Beauty in the sound

Serenity and quiet

Become a torrent

The gentle river

Make peace and understanding

Give respect due it

~~~^j^~~
Thanks be to God
