Daily Pics 2020…#27.

Peony flower buds

Good morning everyone!  Another beautiful day before us.  Muffin was chasing something again, turned out to be another spider.  I’m glad she pointed it out so I could dispose of it before it turned into a full grown monster.  I was laying in bed yesterday morning when I heard the sound of little feet on my pillow.  It was walking back and forth across my pillow a couple of times which didn’t exactly make me feel too calm.  I knew it couldn’t be a mouse because Muffin was sleeping beside me.  That only left one of these monster spiders.  Not a thrilling thought.  So I got up rather quickly and…nothing.  Impossible.  Not knowing what it was is even worse.  Oh well.  Maybe I was dreaming?  With my eyes wide open.  Or was I dreaming my eyes were open?

As we ponder that thought, let’s enjoy some nice bright summer flowers…

First, a group of old fashioned orange daylilies to share some sunshine on a cloudy day.IMG_6673

And here we have one of my favorite wildflowers, the “common vervain”.  Oh, the daylilies above are not wildflowers, but rather a garden variety flower.

I hope you enjoy this selection to start off our day.  Our new mystery story begins today, Muffin and I are excited about it!  Happy Monday everyone and God bless!

Squirrel Fun 2…A Fun Poem.

Squirrel Fun 2

Branches covered with new snow,

Makes it hard to run, you know.

But that squirrel doesn’t see

Problems here, he runs with glee!

Running fast he clears the snow,

Pushing it all down below.

On some branches he will run

Upside down, while having fun.

How he does that, I don’t know,

Shouldn’t he fall in the snow?

Then he goes right down the tree,

Disappears in front of me.

He runs so fast through the snow,

Rarely stops, and never slow.

But…then he sits beside a tree,

With yummy snacks he got from me.

Now sitting there with his food,

He chatters, thanks, this is good!
