Rock-Flipping Day Tercets
A: Right-Side Up
I turn myself over in my mind,
reveal the delicate thready roots
that lace the surface of deeper ground.
B: Upside-Down
A new way to play rock-paper-scissors:
rock sings the muse, paper scrawls poems,
scissors edits then rusts under rock.
C: Right-Side Up Again
Calciferous blanket pulled up tight
to the chins of chitinous millipedes tucked in
the cool dark, dreaming of leaf-mould and puffballs.

I liked these! Especially C.
I like these, too. Having small photographs works well and stimulates the imagination of what might lie around the rock.
These are perfect. We both may live in Austin, Lori, but your eyes were able to see deeply when you flipped your rocks.

Flippin fun post! I also like C. Milipedes sound very comfy indeed.
Love the pics but especially love the words. You have such a command of those words. They do exactly what you want. I salute you!
