the sun’s been up awhile
but beneath winter’s blanket
the landscape still slumbers
Winter Morning
Wake
morning comes
to the dahlia sun
rousing the sleeping bee
Readying
grasses softly sing
slumber’s sweet lullaby
of approaching dormant days
Slumber
december glooming
dark light on the marsh
this is where shadows sleep
Magnolia Bud Bees
Snug in their cozy box
bees dream away the winter.
