barely
weathered by winter
the enduring oak
April Snow
testing patience
and tender buds
winter lingers
March’s Indecisive Landscape
snow recedes
while ever approaching
on the horizon
Today In The Future’s House
weathering winter
barn and silo
house our future
The Four Fields
those two couples
our friendship weathers
seasons and years
Miles of Garland
the landscape
does her decorating
in berries, leaves and weather
Mountain Chime
weather is
the bell ringer
calling all to worship
Slow Rising
the earth awoke
with tiny blooms
as tulips trumpet spring
Readiness
the field prepared
weather on the move
commencement of the growing season
Weather
petal storm
May blizzards
in flowers
Picket Fences
ignoring the gate
time and weather
pass on through
Accumulation
blizzard snow
so fine it can be missed
as it gathers in inches and feet
Storm
so many clouds, a driving rain
a storm was grown
upon the tree
Signs
the pine wears sleet
like many steps of bird’s feet
leaving the sign of peace
Hear the Unspoken
rose hips and hydrangea
having weathered the winter
articulate grace under pressure
Spent
in the brotherhood
of the woods
support is found
Fog’s Clarity
the future disappeared
along with the horizon
leaving the delicate determination of now
Abode
time and weather
downed the tree and birdhouse
chipmunk’s new abode
Outpost
time has worn
the ruby from the clapboards
barns weathering winter
January Yards
a veil of mist
a curtain of crabapples
the fabric of winter
Indecision
woods wrapped
in a shroud of cold
elements undecided
more rain or snow
Bare Clothesline
October afternoon
only rain
hangs on the line
Spring Storm
weather races in
erasing the distance
with mist
Written
time and weather
write the story
of survival on the structure
Wide Sky
clouds rush past
chased by the arctic wind
as I set my sights on blue
Hortensia
the golden girl’s bloom
will weather winter
White Mums
a blizzard of blooms
before the first flakes fall
Consolation
When flowers weep
fairies call out the sun
to dry their tears.
Accumulation
End of May snow.
Trees bend in sorrow.
April Ice
A storm slides in
and glazes spring
freezing her in motion.
