then improved its nest

Angelique's Repose
Angelique hides quietly in a shrub as bees and birds flit around her. A ladybug climbs up her arm to rest on her shoulder. As she watches clouds, a napping, curled cat floats in the sky, followed by a strand of pearls spreading vertically and horizontally. There are many cloud shapes: eagles, mountains, a sleeping baby, and a canoe drifting along the sky river. Leaves brush against Angelique's immobile and ageless form, a concrete maiden frozen in time.

Lightning Never Strikes Twice
The distant rumble, the sudden deluge, the crescendo of sound, the flash of light, the explosive energy — it never gets old. I became an amateur storm chaser about two years ago. My wife, Cindy suggested it. Sort of. She said, "Alex, you know this cancer is killing me. I've come to terms with that, but you're smothering me. Go join a band, write a book, or become a storm chaser, for all I care. I love you, but you need a hobby."

Love the musing on an oft-reviled bird. Anyone who lives in a city is wary of pigeons divebombing them. Can never understand why tourists ignore the birds in their own city but insist on feeding them in someone else's LOL. Was in the garden yesterday getting the evil eye from a pigeon hiding in our cherry try where it made a nest (or stole one). Very thought provoking
This pigeon’s got class! Simply delightfully chill! 💖
Cute haiku, pigeon and photo.💖
How cooperative of him! Lovely haiku, Andrea!
Great haiku, Andrea. That pigeon sure is a looker. Perfectly captured pose
Nice one. I had to take a second look at that pigeon. When I scrolled past, I thought he was smoking, but no, it's got its entire nest in its beak. LOL
Well-wrought! The pigeon has a "look what I got!" kind of vibe going on there!
Awww, that's sooo cute! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
