the progression of blooms
a triptych of peach perfection
Sovereign’s Seat
in the forest
there is a throne of stones
with moss upholstery
Winter Resident
where once the granite steps stood
a stone and lichen alligator now resides
Garland
Forsythia fleetingly adorns
ever enduring granite.
Encounter
Coming upon the cairn in the woods
I knew we were still traveling together.
I added one stone for the two of us
and saw the face of a wise, knowing owl.
Beloved
September’s astonishing blue sky is for you.
Delicate lichen blossoms on stone are for you.
All of nature’s beauty awaits you.
Panta rhei
The flower has turned to pod
the warmth of the sun belies the bite in the breeze
everything flows.
Blooms with Stone
In the garden everything finds its rightful home
a stone is sheltered by a mass of blooms
and so it should be.
