leaning out
the tree uproots
to reach across the river
Seeking Touch
One Wise Knot Hole Eye
an octopus
reached across
the freezing brook
Durga
green goddess
her many limbs
holding up the sky
Reach
winter’s long shadow
reaches for
the shore of spring
Aspire
it is dreams
that stretch
our reach
Long Shadow
January’s long shadow
reaches for the new year
as she carries the past
