the dog tromps and romps
her tracks leave
a story of joy
Nature Writer
Off We Go
adding our tracks
to the worn path
alone together
Side By Side
of the valley
travels the river and train
Railroad
black tracks
cutting through the cold
heading home
Heading into Spring
ride the rails
out of winter’s shadows
into light and the beginnings of green
Route
At the onset the way seems straight forward
but just out of sight are the dips, rises, swerves and curves
that transform a trip into a journey.
Visitors
Morning light reveals
hooves crossing the bridge from the forest into the yard
during the quiet of the night.
