lilac leaf buds
a double flamed torch
shimmering with desire for spring
Coupling
We Grow, Grow, Grow
contrary to their neat rows
the seedlings desire
of life is feral
The Desires Of Details
the colors of new leaves
and their unfolding shapes
devising a composition of spring
What Wandering Reveals
the worn path
a line of desire
made known
I Wanna Be A Bee
or perhaps a hummingbird
I’m a moth
with aspirations
The River Free
the river desires movement
and uses all its wiles
to dodge stillness
Hope With Frost
eternal
desire to be
growing
Field Rut
demanding attention
birch tree antlers
stand at the field
Thirst
berries quench
my January thirst
for color
Reading the Forested Landscape
October morning
the landscape’s poem
told in color and light
The Migration of Melt
the brook breaks free
and runs for the river
longing to unite with the sea
Preparation
mended fence
the paddock waits
for green grass and grazing
Aspire
it is dreams
that stretch
our reach
An Illumination
the desire for spring
burns in the bush
Other Side
Eternal is the longing to be on the other side.
Blue Sky through Pines
The afternoon sky’s hues of blue
momentarily quenched my thirst for Spring.
