winter’s white flower
held aloft by summer’s remnants
shaped by fall’s miscellany

Ribbon

What force turned this tree into a ribbon?
Is it the same force the enables it to still stand?

Pinwheel

When the right breeze blows
seeds will travel to their new homes.
A grand design determines time and place.

Magic in the Mist


Beneath the shroud of early morning mist
all creatures and growing things pause
and give thanks for the coming day.

Whispers


spring whispers green
into the air, onto the trees.

Beauty of Decay


Delicate lines, individual patterns, unique characteristics
these are the traits of spalting,
the mysterious work and beauty of decay.
