Profile

Beauty is everywhere. I feel it in Nature. She makes me smile. Nature heals and fills me up. I use my lens to find her. When I look through it, I lose contact with my surroundings, I become one with my subject. Sometimes I have to look sideways, upside down or breathe deep but it is all there, a new wonder-full world, waiting to be discovered.

I am a self-taught photographer; nature, color and poetry lover. I am still growing and learning, picture by picture, word by word, moment by moment, breath by breath….

Thank you for visiting my portfolio. Comments and emails either here or at virtual.butterflies@gmail.com are welcomed and appreciated.

Finding Her Here

I am becoming the woman I’ve wanted,
grey at the temples, soft body,
delighted, cracked up by life,
with a laugh that’s known bitter
but, past it, got better,
knows she’s a survivor-
that whatever comes,
she can outlast it.

I am becoming a deep weathered basket.

I am becoming the woman I’ve longed for,
the motherly lover
with arms strong and tender,
the growing up daughter
who blushed surprises.

I am becoming full moons and sunrises.

I find her becoming,
this woman I’ve wanted,
who knows she’ll encompass,
who knows she’s sufficient,
knows where she’s going
and travels with passion.

Who remembers she’s precious,
but knows she’s not scarce-
who knows she is plenty,
plenty to share.
