fire – Leaf & Twig

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?
