Noble garden sentry
Sisters
They feed in the field of their ancestors
and rest in a humble structure
that is everything it needs to be –
home
July Morn
Threatening skies
don’t intimidate
wild grass
Country Nine Patch
The land is quilted with care
by leathered hands guiding the blades of the big red tractor.
An old wood fence ties this patch to the next.
Dew
Dew drops balance
on the tips of grass blades
until it is time to wed the earth.
Unfolding
Rock, moss, raffia of grass
the sprouting of leaves.
Resurrection.
Transformation
Snow like sand
in threads of grass.
Spring approaches.
Nature’s Desire
Grass blades grow frost feathers.
Every molecule demanding that their place in the design be realized.
Nature’s desire is to manifest gloriousness.
Snake and Bird
In the winter landscape
the snake with his skin of leaves and grass
hunts the water bird.
Dear John Deer
you rumble across the fields, chewing rocks and cutting grass.
True champion of summer.
Morning
Fluffy dog feet, wet with dew,
cross granite and grass
before arriving at the breakfast bowl.
