three lighthouses
and the morning star
guiding in the day
Keep Watch
Sunrise
beam of light
reaching for heaven
reaching for us
Talking Sticks
each touches the next
mindful to leave
ample space for listening
Sail On
wind at your back
untether yourself
from fear
Waking
dawn opened
her sleepy eye
and lo the day began
There Is Safety
as an island
has a lighthouse
the earth has the moon
Beneath The Moon
as day good-byes
the blue sky waves
in pinks and purples
Cleome Like A Lighthouse
cresting yellow wave
in the ocean
of brown eyed Susans
Falling Into Blue
the sky, the ocean
and the shade too
all falling into blue
The Lap Of Eternity
resting on shore
each wave
a breath
Sea Of Iris
spring’s tide rises
the iris swell
incubating their bloom wave
Oak Leaves And Seaweed
riding the breath
of the ocean
home
If Winter Was An Ocean
the meadow a beach
and the snow tide recedes
storm sets form on the horizon
Space Enough
I am widened
by the ocean’s horizon
so much space for my soul to roam
The Happenstance Of Circumstance
this side so lush and green
autumn on the opposite shore
place dictates everything
The Garden Crests
a yellow wave of color
crashes upon
the shore of fall
Oceans Of Color
in the deep pink sea
peonies undulate
their stamen anemone
Sea Of Green
a froth of fern
meets the garden shore of grass and sunshine
wave sets of trees gather in the distance
Affinity of Land And Sea
coral reefs on fallen logs
likenesses of
the ocean in the forest
Rush
before winter’s cold
stalls the journey
a mad dash to the ocean
Sky Sighs
as waves are
the ocean’s breath
clouds are the sky’s
Solace At The Green Beach
the river’s ways are
more subtle than the ocean
but as potent a soul salve
Blues In Maine
beneath a cerulean sky
the ocean provides
sapphire, slate and stone
The Sea Of Clouds
the wind a tide
in the fast moving sky
blue waves crash as clouds
The Solid Sea
I peered
into an ocean
made of granite
Rain On The Windshield
the tide
came in
from the sky
I Awoke At The Ocean
sand dollars gathered
on the shoreline
of cold
Night Tide
waves of clouds
crashed
on the shore of time
Morning Glory
I fly in your sky
and swim in
your ocean of blue
Undulating Color
the garden an ocean
peony blooms as if
a sea anemone
