regiment of pines
establishing the frontline
in the waning autumn light
Halloween Bunting
banners wave
the hunting party gathers
to stalk their candy prey
Holiness Seen
tiny white outline
halo
on hallowed leaf
Through
finally seen
the exit
from darkness
Depth Of Bloom
lit
from within
soul of the rose
Fall Approaches
as everything changes
keep flowering
as long as you can
This Humble Paradise
pause and let
time expand into
beauty’s forever unfolding
When The Senses Become One
lamb’s ear
listening
to light
Breaking Out Of Darkness
a shaft of light settleson the blue diamond delphiniumsaved from the pounding rain
Everything Rises
as morning sidles
to the edge of the garden
the gingko bows to the day
Deliverance
in the gathering darkness
inexplicably arrives
the light of hope
Illumination
lantern by
the flowering tree
beauty is the light
The Color Purple
a touch
of sun and
color blooms
More Light Later But
winter still
is hunkered down
in the dooryard
The Guardian
moon
in blue
night’s light
Apparition
wandering
between the trees
the ghost of light
Signal Spot
light
without light
lantern in the woods
Lightness
slowly falling light
easing us
out of the dark
On The Night Stand
like a candle keeping
the dark, bitter winter
at bay
The Friendship Plant Abloom
spot
of brightness
in a winter day
Taking It In
sunning yourself
on the fencepost
spirit in light
Heaven and Earth
between
the darknesses
a path of light
Fire In The Sky
sunset
glowing like
a warming hearth
Frost and Light
every shape
made known
outlines and outliers
When Wandering
from afar
a tiny star
can lead us home
The Whole Season In A Single Moment
winter
light and dark
and all the in-betweens
Unveiling
in this fleeting moment
the mountain’s divinity
made itself known
Midday Light
stand of grass
a tethered
cloud
New Light
the yellow woods
leaves offer up
the last of their light
Ghost Tree
times’s skeleton
a spirit
amidst mist
