when my flame of awe flickers
nature’s beauty
fans it back to fire
Reawakened
Wildfire
racing through the garden
carried by the wind
columbine’s wild flames
Hot Spot
a maple ember
burning bright
on a freezing morn
August Sun
reeds and grasses
illumined by heat
green fire on the water
Marsh Alighted
the reeds
ignited
burning through daylight
Color Burns In The Rain
maple flames
birch trails
white smoke
Flame
ablaze
with color
tribute to summer
Fire In The Sky
sunset
glowing like
a warming hearth
Set Upon By The Sun
joyful sparks
in Nonnie’s garden
columbine catch fire
Tender Topography
colors smolder
as light negotiates night
landscape of the soul
Dichotomy
firebrand
of flowers
aflame in the rain
Wild Fire
deep in the shade
wild columbine’s
embers burn
Intensity
the sun
so bright
colors catch fire
Fire In The Sky
clouds smolder
their red embers
igniting the water’s edge
Afire
the flame
of red geranium
against the chimney wall
Bonfire
The burn pile
awaits the safety of snow
before the dance of flames.
The Artist
Indian Paintbrush colors the meadow
with embers of sunset.
Birch Bark
What shall we do together dear useful friend
write a letter, build a canoe, kindle a fire
or listen to the wind in your leaves?
