layers

the birch sheds
her bark cocoon
revelation after revelation

How It Grows

layers and lines
drawing the complexities
of the garden’s many cycles

the heart
of the farm
the red barn

bright green moss
under snow
yes hope springs eternal

of design
and gradients
of hue

as I approach
the mist recedes
slow introduction to clarity

nestled between
the snow and log
late fall’s remains

colors
descended upon us
closing the curtain of night

between
the trees and snow
time hibernates

fountain in winter
slow flow
of ice and snow
