'Anne's Feeder' 10x10"oil pastel;  Kathleen Faulkner

I watch the birds

eat at Anne's feeder.

I look past the feeder at the tree behind

The leaves are gone now

replaced with juncos

waiting their turn.

weather or not

'Winter Morning'. 12x12" oil pastel;  Kathleen Faulkner

Sometimes

in the midst of ruff and tumble weather

hopeful breaks appear.

I always appreciate those.
