Vermilion flycatcher

Vermilion flycatcher, El Charco del Ingenio, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México

Tiny spot of crimson
Perching on a post,
Of your hearty appetite,
You're allowed to boast!

Gazing

Visitors gaze at the El Charco del Ingenio hillsides, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México, while hungering for a snack

Gazing at the hillsides
To restore their souls,
Hikers on a holiday,
Dream of jelly rolls.

Leftovers...

Someone's abandoned watermelon, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México

Fruity little tidbits
In a plastic cup,
Waiting for the trash man
To come pick them up!

Red railing

Staircase inside the statue to honor Pipila, a hero of the Mexican Revolution, Guanajuato, Mexico

With a worn red railing,
Though the stairs are steep,
There's no fear of failing
On the downward creep.

Singer

Old treadle sewing machine at Fábrica La Aurora, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México

Singer stitching curtains,
Shirts and pantaloons,
As your needle pierces,
Lovely are the tunes.

Light and dark

Pedestrians on a shady street, Guanajuato, México

Skipping through the shadows,
Dancing in the light,
Even though there's darkness,
Everything's all right!

Breakdown

"Mas Problema de Motor" by Mike Kleimo, at Fábrica La Aurora, , San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México

Fervently they're wishing
For a helping hand
Now that their truck's stranded
In this desert land.
