beneath the snow
revealed by the sun
spring has already begun
Unseen Work
Companions
they relied
on each other
for texture and tone
When The Senses Become One
lamb’s ear
listening
to light
Repose
the day after
the day lilies
ending
Touch Of Fall
gathering
at the edges
time’s concentration
Red Edge
boundary marking
the meeting place
of self and other
Practice
mediation
on lavender and grey
fern’s delicate display
Buddha and the Dutchmen
community gathers
in the shadow
of faith
At The Green House
breathing in green
all the starts and stirrings
of potential
Strength
spring’s
green shoulders
holding up the sky
Green Laurels
undaunted
spring’s victory crown
rises
Synapse
signals sent
of bloom and rest and bloom
dormancy too must be received
Holding Light
serene in uncertainty
possibilities tumble
into the unknown
Garden Party
plants and insects
celebrate
the first of summer’s days
Assured
pretty is
as pretty does
believes the flowering leaf
First One Up
dear Johnny
the last to bed
the first to rise
Declaration
every edge
announced itself
declaring place in space
Be Thy Name
scarlet lipped goddess
her name be trillium
Beauty’s Work
pink veined
form follows function
in the leaf’s architecture
Stalked
the mighty squash
produces a stem
solid as a trunk
Sunflower Power
temptation
bests the birds
they sample seeds
too raw to be ready
Together
each needle of the thistle seeks
the thread that holds us together
Panoply
delicate down
provocative protection
Painted
water colored
in greens and cream
hosta leaf
Spiral
unfurling its scarlet edge
it is the leaf that blooms
Touché
houseplants counter
the outdoor’s red, orange and yellow
with pink and green
Autumn’s Gesture
a feather
of fern seeds
waves in the wind
Offering
in the baby tears
a sprite plants
dreams yet to be dreamed
Fronds
side by side
two greens
salute the sun
Story Telling
Foliage
tells its own
color story.
