edges drink the colors
of weather and time
which paint the leaves
Red Dress
The maple
in her red dress
turns heads
Opening
The maple unfurls
her first blossoms
opening all possibilities.
Sugared Maple
The frozen world
creates the leaf’s
next incarnation of beauty
Refinement
Brilliant red
butterfly wings
dancing in the breeze.
Flame
celebrate color
in all of its intensity and delicacy.
Antler Alter
Antlers embrace pods from the Japanese maple tree,
a shrine to the seasons of life and bounty of Sunday Mountain,
a place to worship.
