first and most mysteriously comes
an internal expansion
that commands glorious opening
With All Blooms And Beginnings
Red Maple Flowers
red pompoms
raised high in the deep blue sky
cheering on spring
Service
home sweet home
the many duties
of the maple tree
Luminary
snowing light
the maple tree’s
luminosity
Maple Wind
never still
maple blossoms
dance through their days
Sanctuary
While the garden is watered
I shelter with the maple.
