Kleine Vuurvlinder op de Zonnehoed

Summer Story

by Mary Oliver

When the hummingbird

sinks its face

into the trumpet vine,

into the funnels

of the blossoms

and the tongue

leaps out

and throbs,

I am scorched

to realize once again

how many small, available things

are in this world

that aren’t

pieces of gold

or power——-

that nobody owns

or could but even

for a hillside of money—–

that just float

in the world,

or drift over the fields,

or into the gardens,

and into the tents of the vines,

and now here I am

spending my time,

as the saying goes,

watching until the watching turns into feeling,

so that I feel I am myself

a small bird with a terrible hunger,

with a thin beak probing and dipping

and a heart that races so fast

it is only a heart beat ahead of breaking——

and I am the hunger and the assuagement,

and also I am the leaves and the blossoms,

and, like them, I am full of delight, and shaking.

My dear flickr friends, i haven't been to the States lately. My last few uploads were just old pics taken last year when i was there. I'm still too busy to shoot new ones :)

Thanks for your visits.

The Flickr Lounge-Texture

This is what's left of it after I sprayed it. It amazes me how durably built these nests are. I was not happy having to do this because these bugs are pollinators, but with the work we need to do on the back shed, a wasps nest is not something we want so close by. By the time we get at the work this could be much larger, so, I decided it had to go. What's left are some eggs that will probably not survive since they are exposed to the air and its in the 90's today. I'll check it again in a couple of days to make sure no wasps are returning.

(not for minifigures)

This was the picture of this bikini when I first spotted it laying towards the dunes on the beach as you can see although it had been dropped it was still intact at this time
