Treasures

bright yellow petals
held in her child's hand
treasures

A beetle

a beetle scurries pass
heading for a destination
unknown

Turtle and Alligator

an alligator glides
on green, swampy waters
splash -- a turtle dives

Butterflies

butterflies
flapping their wings
in a temple's silence

Bromeliad's Guest

playing peek a boo
two bright eyes betray 
a bromeliad's guest
