beside the brook
light and shadow
conversed about
contentment’s ways
Black Rocks Green Leaves
In The Garden
sitting with
the flowers
my soul is at home
All As It Should Be
berries in tranquility
content against
the sky’s faint blue
A Satisfaction
a contented lowing
released into the mist rise
of the morning
The Woods Contented
their satisfaction of being
is to be filled
with newness
In The Dooryard Of The Birdhouse
bloomed around us
it was enough just to be
Nature’s Company
just the queen
and me
enough of everything
Cat Naps
sharing the stoop
in the afternoon sun
perfect contentment
Sighs in the Hay
inside the barn
contentment rested
as it stormed outside
Sometimes
the grass is greener
right where you are
Centered
sigh of contentment
pink blushed bloom
the center of this moment
A Rescuing Sky
Contentment sails by
on a pink cloud.
In Place
An open stretch of sky, grass as soft as velvet
the wandering Connecticut River within reach;
all is well, God is near.
