the weather
dreamed of spring
in water eggs and feather ice
Metamorphosis
winter’s icy caterpillar
gestates spring’s
tender wings of color
Fluid
in the rush of change
the only way to become oriented
is to surrender to transformation
Stirring
the water swam
as shadows danced
the past nourishing the present
Waterfall Window Dressing
frozen cascade
winter’s cold curtain
oh the drapery of days
The Enoughness of Nothing
in nothing
everything
rejoiced
In The Sleepy Woods
trees dream in misty green
of heaven’s touch and fairy rings
Sanctuary
snow in sun
basking leaves
dwell in the sanctuary of now
Dance
in the slow snow
the garden waltzed
with winter
Circle Theory
in the bedlam of branches
some center emerges
the circle where beginnings and endings meet
Reliance
nuance is sly
relying upon
hard edges
Bloom
winter’s rose flowers
amidst the falling snow
amongst the frozen grass
Behold
the light
of fog and frost
incarnation of hope
Edges
in the places
where we meet
we find who we are
Wind
fast moving sky
the world rushes by
a leaf holds tight to home
Night Meets Day
bare branches
still covered in night
receive the morning sky
Entry to the Realm of Spirits
hollowed through
passage to
the other side
Like to Like
soft as snow
feathered reeds
where winter will rest
Milk Glass Sky
the world
was illuminated
through an art glass sky
River Dance
light dances
across the surface
leaving footprints of joy
Finery
the woods
dress in their finery
fall’s tapestry of leaves
Collection
gathered
sunlight and stripes
abundance of gourds
Old Friend
watching you
stillness settles into me
as the universe unfolds
Written There
the bird and insect’s canon
left for man and beast
hieroglyphics on trees
Paradox
uncertainty embraced
calm ensues
amidst chaos
Immersion
within
the depths
of bloom
Each Moment’s Bloom
so sweet the day
the air brand new
each moment blooms before me
Peppered Sky
sky peppered with birds
the seasoning of spring
Asylum of Iris
exposed by spring
hidey-hole the burrow’s door
awaits the asylum of iris
Awakening
invisible
is the rousing
of the drowsy woods
