seek
intimacy with existence
look without naming
The One Hundred Year Old Window
lens of the past
abstracting the present
waves of light and memories
Standing Side By Side
rooted in the now
the wind
is their breath
Present
here now
heron holds tight
to the present moment
Sage
the sage knows
the only time
is now
Mirror
the pond reflects
life’s web of connections
the artistry of now
Lichen and Ice
a slow walk
yields
a bounty of beauty
Lessons in Stone
weathering life
requires all your strength
Presents of Being Present
autumn’s air is crisp and chill
dalias on the windowsill
Virtuosity
A solitary leaf
exquisitely demonstrates
the art of being.
I said
slow down a little, enjoy the scenery.
The marsh is marvelous this time of year.
But he paddled furiously on
determined to miss every enjoyment in his path.
Out by the Barn
The flowers are arranged, the table is dressed
this party is thrown for summer
and all the blessings it has bestowed.
