lichen blooms
on the granite post
barbed wire holds
the cold

a landscape of blooms
mirrors the granite outcropping

a seed landed
a root took hold

traverse
the granite face

on an ocean of granite.

As the oak leaf rests on granite
millenniums cradle this season.

A transitory garden mosaic
of shadow, leaves and granite veins.

everything flows.
Granite State
Miles of the great silver rock
have been cut to create the corridor

The granite layer cake was frosted with snow.
It keep well for several centuries at room temperature.
When the sun often licked off all the icing
the sky simply applied another layer.
Rock
Now you are solid, holding your place in the granite state.

Fluffy dog feet, wet with dew,
cross granite and grass
before arriving at the breakfast bowl.
