indoor reds...

moody weather outdoors... so the time has come to be inventive...
This is my cat Shadow's red rug and an old calendar with beautiful photos
and stories of the Australian Aboriginal Dreaming...


whining winds
stories from other dreamings
cosy blanket


Welcome to
RUBY TUESDAY TOO

Fake red leaves

Fake red leaves, blown by desert winds from a grave in southern Arizona

Escaping cemeteries
Is a leafy art;
We light up the desert
As we cheer your heart.

a big tank...

a big tank parked at the Enchanted Adventure Garden, Arthurs Seat...


some shiny metal
space to ride in some
chunky vintage


Welcome to
RUBY TUESDAY TOO

Santa Fe National Cemetery

Santa Fe National Cemetery, Santa Fe, New Mexico

Row upon row of white stones
Marking the resting places
Of soldiers lying below—
They have names, but no faces.

lifebuoy...

lifebuoy near boats moored at Docklands, Melbourne...


inflated circle
a chance to survive
a crisis


Welcome to
RUBY TUESDAY TOO

Candles

Prescott, Arizona courthouse In January 2015, still decorated for Christmas

Even after Christmas,
Candles make it clear
That all people welcome
Light throughout the year!

summer shade...

Not everyone sits on a summer beach...
Some seek shady shelter on the nearby foreshore...
These chairs overlook Dromana beach...


summer shade
welcome relief from
the heat of crowds
