left
is my best
side
Self Conscious
The Reeds Swear Sovereignty
late summer
wears a crown of wood
nobility of trees
Happenings In Forest Time
sunshine makes for shade
as the river flows
and mushrooms grow
Water Cairns
stone memories
commemorating place
in the passage of time
In The Stillness
the trees admire
their own
stately symmetry
River Border
the north side
maintains the line
spring seeks to cross
March Madness
a tangle of seasons
simultaneously
letting go and hanging on
February Narcissus
winter gazed
upon her own reflection
in the river
Searching For Flowers
in winter
it is the snow
that blooms
The Center Holds
shadows play
on the river of leaves
stillness inside movement
Turbulence
despite
wind and current
we travel together
Gentle Mountains
rounded shoulders
of time
guide the river
The River
I let
the current carry
all my worry away
Side By Side
through the heart
of the valley
travels the river and train
The River In September
the deepening
of green and blue
expands the view
Work And Play
between wood stackings
we put paddles in the water
time is our friend
Ricochet Of Loveliness
phlox white clouds
the sky echos
the garden’s bloom
By The River In July
thirsty fields
anticipate
some much needed rain
Cows In The Pasture
however far away
place holders
for a summer’s day
You Can (But You Can’t) Fence Me In
the dandelions corralled
but their wishes
cannot be contained
The River Free
the river desires movement
and uses all its wiles
to dodge stillness
Becoming One
the temperature rises
snow becomes fog
the universe dissolves into itself
Afternoon With Cows
we bask
in autumn light
as time floats by
At Summer’s Edge
down by the river
the susans and goldenrod
commune
Watching The Clouds Parade
this rightful place
at river’s edge
near summer’s end
Thistle By The River
in the wind
whistling
as water passes
Still Life
the river
pauses to admire
the bloom
River Crossing
ripples reveal
the zig zag ways
of paddling paws
Engineering Work
the dam’s
first structural component
carefully selected and prepared
Bee Boxes
hives stir
as the river melts
quiet workings of spring
