headstone of
roots and earth
an eloquent epitaph
Fallen Giant
Rush
before winter’s cold
stalls the journey
a mad dash to the ocean
Tributary
a white path
wanders the woods
the creek in winter
Cold Creek
The creek moves fast cutting its way
through the meadow towards the river
trying to outrun the inevitable freeze.
Revision
Sunlight transforms the creek
into the undulating underbelly
of a speckled trout.
