ready to swing wide open
for any and all
kinds of kindness and love
February’s Gate
Invitation
autumn left
the gate open so
summer’s end could enter
At One Eighty Three
if tranquility
had an entrance
it would be this
Savoring The Sunshine
summer has not yet
opened the gate
to fall
View Of The Gate That Does Not Open
look past and beyond
the overgrown and closed
and see all that is
Picket Fences
ignoring the gate
time and weather
pass on through
To End Is To Begin
fresh light
fell on New Year’s Day
shadows came and had their say
Picnic
the table’s cloth
is made of snow
and set with sun
Astronomy
it seemed
the moon had landed
inside the garden gate
Saturated
a bluing sky
intensifies
the turning of the trees
Beautiful World
autumn colors
creep up from behind
nine lives are not enough
Doormen
dahlias at the gate
ushering us into the world
welcoming us home
Invitation
the open gate
invites me
into the new day
Loyalty
guardian at the gate
the iron lab
waits
Gateway
fallen tree
becomes a torii arch
gate to the sacred woods
Go
into the unknown
unafraid
to the life beyond
this living
Invitation
the whole wide world awaits
outside the garden gate
A Gate With A View
the world awaits
outside the garden gate
Perseverance
Although it has been ages
since the corral gate has kept anything in or out
it still refuses to let go.
