Winter’s Song
earth’s orchestra plays
winter’s melody of cold
while the wind harmonizes
in ice and snow
Revealed
shadow and ice reveal
the fence’s wobbly fears
Reverie
corn stalks
skate and ski
Jacob’s Brook
water runs to the long river
singing the final refrains of its song
before it is silenced by winter
Determination
pines and reeds
hold tight to their colors
as winter whitens the landscape
Communication
rising to the surface
autumn’s message of love
Only
on the frozen marsh
where everything is holding its breath
sunlight is the only motion
Ray
a shaft of sunlight
holds the pond open
Iris in Ice
Winter persists
trying spring’s patience.
April Ice
A storm slides in
and glazes spring
freezing her in motion.
Melt
As the earth softens
spring finds hospitality
in the primordial offering of mud.
Effervescence
Beneath March’s icy hold
Spring begins her rise to the surface.
Quiet White
Winter
white washes
the woods.
Winter Bloom
The cold bears gifts
the fleeting bloom
of an ice orchid.
Winter’s Approach
Ice creeps across the marsh.
Pine trees await their white winter coats.
Cold sharpens the silence.
Cold Creek
The creek moves fast cutting its way
through the meadow towards the river
trying to outrun the inevitable freeze.
Jacob’s Brook
Math
The winter term is in session.
The pond provides a lesson in icy geometry.
Ice Flow
The moment is caught in midstream
like the oak leaf
frozen in time.
