fresh powder
piles up
everything a-sparkle
Queen Anne and Goldenrod
the meadow
arranges
a fall display
The Queen’s Scepter
knighthood
is bestowed upon
all the glories and duties of snow
The Queen’s Roadside Court
at her command
buttercup and thistle’s
pomp and circumstance
Her Delicate Majesty
the queen
in light and shadow
the shimmer of her flowerless crown
Nature’s Company
just the queen
and me
enough of everything
Dominion
Queen Ann
presides over
the hillside
Downpour
sudden storm
a crack
then cloudburst
Flowering Light
perfectly composed
by the side of the road
sunshine and shade
Queen Anne’s Field
the old red barn
watch guard
of the queen’s field
