some summer fun
cooling off the hooves
while strolling the brook
Thistle By The River
in the wind
whistling
as water passes
Into The Deep
dive into
delphinium’s
blue depths
Last One In
propelled
by Mom’s encouragement
first swim
Homeward Bound
water’s purpose
to be ever
rushing home
Reigning Beauty
this day
heaven sent
we are drenched
in peace and beauty
Ephemeral Pool
ephemeral pool
mysterious light
microbial magic
Welcome
fleeting
glimpse of spring
blackbird visiting
Everything At Once
each element
finds the perfect place
next to all the rest
In That Space
between the leaves
and their reflection
resides consciousness
Above and Below
twice seen
revelation
of self
The Afternoon’s Infinity
time’s reflection
floating by
ever expanding now
Marsh In Morning Light
all possibilities
gather
at the water’s edge
Effortlessly
gliding through
the light and shadow
of life on life’s terms
Belief
the power
to rise
intention under wings
Summertime
the practice
of doing
nothing
Ripples
each line
a marker
of time
Projection
reflection
already where
canoes want to be
The Maple’s Ghost
floated by
gracefully entering
the next dimension
Stars In The River
galaxies
wash up
on the shore
Inversion
water mirror
sets everything
on top of itself
Stop Action
the world stirs
then stops again
spring’s incremental approach
Fluidity
water never tires
of the temperature’s
perpetual requirement of readjustment
Trimming
the eaves
wear a tatting of ice
fastened by a shuttle of cold
Becoming One Another
the icing pond
receiving rain
so many ways to be
What the Flowers Taught the Snow
aster’s blooms
each individualized
inspiration to snowflakes
Secrets
winter gathers
at the pond’s edge
hiding cold amongst the reeds
The Brook
still running
before cold takes hold
and water stills
The Trees Abstracted
water offers
a reflective reminder
of life’s fragile fluidity
Microcosm of the Universe
marsh made
mandala
the cosmos arose
