with hopes of becoming a tall and

I'll Take the TreeThey say a poem can never be

By a dupe with a power saw, hand-held?
I wonder if it would be fair
To, this...

From lonesome cities
I took no time
To listen...

The View of the SugarbushRippling soil sways in ways
In ways a maestro drunkenly
Displays their baton, Earth in

Rings through Vermont’s silken air
Each movement weaves effortless
In majesty.
Hickory smoke leaves...

Brewing a coffee tornado that is going to spill all over my shirt

THE CRUELTY OF TIMEOh, how cruel time can be!
Shattering hopes and killing beauty.
Slowly it steals moments, leaving everything bare
Time, a relentless force, beyond compare.
