Dotted gayfeather  Appearing out of nowhere  Sprouts its own garden

Treehouse observer  Deer wander as birds fly by  Winds thread through the woods

Despite exposure  Gnarled tree fingers endure  Countless human strides

Food, music, people  A sense of community  Coming together

Protective grasses  Shield charming purple harebells’  Fairylike display

Strategically placed  Tortoise enjoys lettuce snack  And pets from children
