with the crop given
the field speaks to the clouds
of respite and restoration
Sometimes
the grass is greener
right where you are
Field Song
grasses sing
a serenade
to shorter days
What The Field Watches
pumpkin on the mill stone
and so the seasons turn
Pema
she hunts insights
in the misty mystical field
Divine Pink Sky
heaven
brushed against
the landscape
Old Fashioned
considered square
these old time rectangles
are far more picturesque
than newfangled marshmallows
Emergence
wisdom lies
in the embrace
of not knowing
Yield
first light
stretches across the acres
that are harvest’s home
Pink In The Field
cavorting crown vetch
a flowering thicket
coloring summer’s carefree days
Twin Peaks
the summit
must be heaven
where angels sherpa
Sunflowers
beaming in the hot sun
best beheld from the cool
depths of woodland shade
Beneath The Palisades
barn catches
the morning sun
another beginning begun
Paradox
set free
by the fence
uninhibited and unafraid
delphinium bloom with abandon
Darkness in the Light
lantern’s speck of light
trusted guide
on a dark day
Invitation
the whole wide world awaits
outside the garden gate
Arrival
summer flew in
on the wide blue sky
and landed in the greening field
Quiet White
bright blue sky
hushed by clouds
quiet white surrounds
Quiet Courage
bowed to the forces of nature
resilience is the heart
of the wind swept pine
Goldenrod in January
gone
are her golden
inflorescences
leaving only loveliness
Marker
in January
old views
feel new
Sentry
the bluebird box
stands sentry
over winter’s weathering
of the field
Blessings
so many blessings grace us
the wind, the seed
a place to be
Field Psalm
dried grass’
wind song
autumn’s hymn
Departure
finished pumpkin patch
crow makes his leave
winter is on the wing
River Bank
I invest my time
at the river’s bank
serenity is my yield
Respect
a freshly mown field
honors the old barn
Sun Kissed
like the sun in July
yellow spreads across the field
Oceanic Ornamental
their splash of red
and foam of flowers
washes across June
Listening
the stillness
of the frozen
field and river
can be heard
