with one step
we are on the other side
and a new year begins
To Be Like Rain
droplets
hang on
like hope
Rhythm Of The Seasons
a syncopation
of changing colors
fall’s visual music
Arrival
even the leaves
came
two by two
Bluebird So Soft
bright eyed
in a blue sky
hope personified
A Wishbone Branch
will spring
or snow
get the bigger piece?
The Space That Snowflakes Make
in the falling silence
the space to release worries
and find peace
Keeping Company
the garden shed
and branch bench
share the wait for spring
Not One Alone
every berry
provided with
companionship
Bursting Forth
life force
an explosion
of joy
Fishbone
fish skeleton
swimming
the ocean sky
Tree Spirit
all seeing
knot hole eye
mouth of the missing branch
Magnolia
latticework
of bud and branch
holding up blue sky
Ice storm
in the shine
of the woods
winter days slipping by
Owl In Blue
sharp cold
ruffling feathers
and solitary thoughts
Here We Are
looking
for you
you found me
Open To Receiving
a winter walk
the wood’s gifts of beauty
match every step
The Artist At Play
nature
in her paint box
the intrepid unexpected
Frills And Polka Dots
found
on the ground
dropped forrest accessory
Summit of the Small and Large
oriole and eagle
the meeting
of beauty and power
The Great Now
happiness
was flowering
everywhere
Unity
branch mirrors
the horse’s shape
all is one
Cold Petals
finery
of frost
a frozen flowering
Stars In The River
galaxies
wash up
on the shore
Fold Mountains
shifting sediment
of snow
branch mountain range
Caress
finger of snow
tracing every
branch and leaf
Fleeting Forever
kindling beauty
the birch branch pile
nature’s ephemeral immortality
The Crabapples
painted
by sunlight
on black velvet shadow
With An Open Heart
receive
the gift
of now
The Usefulness Of Everything
bark, branch and leaf
pay their debt to the earth
with themselves
