is the lone tree lonely
or proud to be
the sentry…
This Side Of The Woods
Keeping Watch
at summer’s threshold
a redwing
stands sentry
Duty
the sentry
guarding the feeder
as dawn wakes the day
Sentry
the bluebird box
stands sentry
over winter’s weathering
of the field
Sentinel
cement sentry
even in sleep
a watchful guardian
Silhouette
sentry in the mist
guardian of daydreams
Spring’s Sentry
Creeping phlox
sneaks up the mountain
stalking the last of the frost.
