many are the beginnings
and the sheddings
that escort us into the new
Dance Of Transformation
supple and brittle
dancing on their stems
leaves dervish in the wind
Oh To Bloom On
November sun transforms
the frost on the mums
into tears of joy
To Be And Be Another
after she flowers
blackberry lily
fruits in seed
A New Way Of Being
brittle and brown
a mirror
for light
Becoming
in saying goodbye
the leaf became
a butterfly
The Path Is Paradox
by being still
becoming
part of the motion
Contained
all transformations
of the seasons change
assembled in the now
Housing Tomorrow’s Beauty
seed heads
the flowers
chrysalis
The August Garden
drinking in humidity
and transforming heat
into color
The Commonplace Sublime
late November light
delivers the touch
of grace
Enigmatic Mist
mysteries
of the season change
secrets of transformation
Early Departure
each hole
a doorway where
life passes through
