straight
stands the chimney
in the wobbly roofed structure
Each Part Relies On The Other
Communion
oh to rest
in the sheltering wisdom
of the old, old tree
A Reunion Of Experience
the old barn
amongst new leaves
each teaching the other
OH Tannenbaum
thirty years tall
you carry our Christmas wishes
all the way to the stars
Taking The Day
mother and child
side by side
into the morning mist
Lesson In A Begonia Leaf
age
refining and redefining
the essence
The Disappearing Barn
seasons
pass through
memories remain
Finding Purpose
seeking sun when young
making shade with age
the garden’s straw hat
Arbor Ador
aged arbor
speaks to me
of countless happy times
Saddled Up
swayback shed
saddled by the sky
ridden by time
Structure of Spirit
with all of youth departed
the essence laid bare
great beauty remains
Telling Time
wrinkles not rings
tell the secrets
of this tree’s age
