the rabbit
and the old man
disappeared down a Swiss cheese hole
Surface Of The Moon
The Tree’s Topography
a map of life
the bark divulging
her valleys and mountains
Summer Of Rain
this rain falls hard, pounding
this man rain roars
bent on reshaping our topography
Across The Lake
the deciduous grove
in winter reveals
an intimate topography
Growing Season Allegory
full of peaks and valleys
riches and scarcity
and straight lines that wander
Drifting
mountains upon mountains
the wood’s topography
ever changing
The Dear Nearness Of The Wilderness
miles of mountains
populated only by trees
as it should be
Topography
here it is recorded
every nuance
of each day
Tender Topography
colors smolder
as light negotiates night
landscape of the soul
Shifting
neither even or fair
the lay of the land
embraces inconsistency
Zig Zag
like the teeth of a zipper
brown and ground emerge
opening to spring
