trees still wearing
their autumn colors
put on a shawl of white
The Watcher
seer
of all things
unmasking mysteries
Watching Curves
the bridge
the rock wall
the landscape itself
Becoming One
the temperature rises
snow becomes fog
the universe dissolves into itself
Wonderment
sunlight sparkles on water
snowflakes descend to greet it
all kinds and conditions of magic
The Haven Of Barns
come winter
they will encompass
my world
Winter Orchard
holding space
for
flower and fruit
Frontline
throughout
winter’s long march
positions held for spring
Storm Upon Snow
always something different
in the same view
vision’s infinity
Bright and Cheering
oh the crabapple
with its ready embrace
of color
Unveiling
in this fleeting moment
the mountain’s divinity
made itself known
Tender Dawn
pink morning sky
the rising mist
beauty persists
Answered
the pines
asked no questions
all was answered in being
The Privileged
we watch
winter’s demanding dramatics
from inside our warm havens
Standing
in
the presence
of abscence
The First Day
the new year’s
pristine landscape
and horizon of hope
Expressionism
all worldly
passions painted
by the sky
Readiness
the field prepared
weather on the move
commencement of the growing season
Rain Pond
on quenched earth
rain becomes
reflections of the day
Land of Dreams
misty mountain
recurring dream
of the sleeping field
Pentirsi
pentimento landscape
stark space made by winter
prior home of earliest spring
Early Company
infinity of blue
venus and the moon
visit before night
Hush
quiet falling
silence
on the ground
Duty
in service
to the season
cliffside color clings
Gathering
cold gathers
in the tree line
stronger than November sun
Tender Topography
colors smolder
as light negotiates night
landscape of the soul
On the East Knoll
lambs gentled the landscape
making space for weariness to rest
Intentions
soft the morning rose
dreaming into being
a wholeness of day
Meadowland
lupin shared their secrets
of beauty, bloom and seed
summer spread across the field
More than Rain, Lighter than Snow
shrouded grey December day
clouds carry today’s hope
