Celebrating with Pride (poetic photo essay)

Shooed the bug away, realizing too late
It's a ladybug, real life is exhausting 

White pickup truck, moving slow revved powerfully, 
Trying to create strife is exhausting

Joy from youthful bubble chasers challenging
The rainbow globes half-life is exhausting 

Black pickup follows the white, slowly, other direction
Still looking for wildlife is exhausting 

Many chats, introducing folks, connecting the dots 
All good work, improving our whole life is exhausting 

Painting Venus, in shaded tent, renders the gazebo
Prideful colored as still life is exhausting

Ladybug returns, that must be telling you something Sherlock 
You know reporting on good life is exhausting


Reflections on the pride celebration in Franklin, captured while on the Town Common, editing completed later that day, 06/25/23 - shared from ->   https://www.quietpoet.com/2023/06/celebrating-with-pride.html
