over time
becoming
one
Together
Found
there was a lot of leaving
but some love
stayed behind
Right Angles
nature
the master
mathematician
Splendid Ending
passing through
the fullness
of bloom
The Circle Is Never Broken
the decaying maple stump
an ancient landscape
for the pine seedling
Embraced
cradled by oak leaves
the birch branch begins
her return to earth
A Home
in the protection of decay
the more humble
the more precious
Early Departure
each hole
a doorway where
life passes through
Wood From Wood
and so the mushroom
replicates
the tree’s rings of life
On The Bulkhead Door
disintegrated blossoms
rain and time
etch the cosmos
Graceful Exit
in leaving
the leaving of self
behind
Frosting
these leaves
sugared
with cold
Reading Signs
goodbye
was written
in morse code
Still Life
vibrancy
and demise
juxtaposed by light
The Light, The Colors, The Change
all of autumn
here
in this leaf
Beautiful Goodbyes
as colors fade
the intricacies
of structure emerge
Unification
as time
went by
it all became one
Apparition
the ghost
of hosta’s
past
The Old Birch Disrobed
time
takes her
seasons dress her
Found And Found Again
the truth
of beauty
is always rearranging
The Artist At Play
nature
in her paint box
the intrepid unexpected
Little Orange Village
fairies
destination vacation
spot
Pink Halo
columbine departs
trinity of trinity
leaves asunder
The Disappearing Barn
seasons
pass through
memories remain
Lesson In A Leaf
life asks
that we give away
little parts of ourselves
Leaf and Twig
both separated
from the tree
yet still entwined
Portals
life passes through
on the way
to the great beyond
Apple’s Obligation
time is the harvester
of a crop that grew
to feed the earth
Repose
beauty
in the ending
life wholly given
Near Enough
a great blue
dwarfed by ancients
returning to sacred ground
