There's a Bluebird in my heart that wants to get out... ~Charles Bukowski 🪶 ❄️💙❄️ 📸 Aphelocoma woodhouseii, Blueborb of Happiness 🐦🌿 #Borb #Corvids #Bluebirds #BlueSkyMonday #EastCoastKin #BirdLovers #Winterbirds #ArtYear

Storms break, Unrepentant. The relevant, The useful, Now washed away Down river. Love, glorious love Remains. 💙 We breath Its tender humid blueness Together. #BlueSkyMonday #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited #StormHour #PhotographersofBlueSky #vss365 #poetry #sunset #photo #relevant

Climb to the sun. Your frozen boughs Shimmer across the sky. Your work is done. Decades digging roots Deep In unforgiving soil. Shine on, wild one. Your legacy: A forest Of grit and grace. #ImageAndVerse #Stunday #EastCoastKin #nature #poetry #PhotographersofBlueSky #PhotographersUnited #photo

Seasons change. So do I. Time turns red Before reawakening, Betwixt, between, Belonging again. ❤️ #EastCoastKin #RedWed #Macro #ColorADay #PhotoHour #poetry #PhotographersUnited #artyear #PhotographersOfBlueSky #photo

There’s a moment near the top of Trail Ridge Road when the first light of day strikes the centerline just right, turning the pavement into a ribbon of fire. At 12,000 feet, with frost on the windows and silence all around, sunrise feels like it was built just for you. #trailridgeviews #rmnp

To dream in the drift Of lucent waters, To rest in the scent Of earthen moss. 🌿 #BlueSkyArtShow #green #EastCoastKin #artyear #Landscape #photography #nature #PhotoHour #poetry #PhotographersUnited #PhotographersofBlueSky
