new wonders
on old paths
the magic of snow
Made New
Believe
despite the enormity
of the big dark woods
and the smallness of our feet
we can find our way through

on the porch
admiring the bleeding hearts

her tracks leave
a story of joy

from the oak stump
warning from the watcher

the delicate landing of a fallen leaf
the pebbled shore in conversation with the waves
the dog and I witnesses to all creation

faithful friend
maintains his place in the shade
between the bloodroot and the blooms
Sensing What Is Beyond Sight
like Mabel
the woods call to me too
beckoning with mysteries and solace

the picnic bench
be lonely

as unwitting
model

still
they hold the guard

speeding towards the comforts of home

but always keeping
within sight

the call of the wild
and being called home

the garden bed
and puppy
curve

on the couch
with their own
pillow and blanket
Thin Ice
suspended on
the surface of things
seeking a breakthrough

my little polar bear
out enjoying
winter’s fresh air
Contemplating the Flowers
shooed from the garden bed
the porch as
observation perch

beauty draws us
out of the darkness
into the light
A Dog’s Life
overseeing
the world
from a shady spot

she hunts insights
in the misty mystical field
Devotion
to be waited for
and received in love
is the soul of homecoming
Dog Art
Pads of paws
on snowy steps
draw flowers.
