The Moment of SpringThe Moment of Spring
The valley at last in full bloom
Frosty nights
And wind machines in the morning
Flowers all calling
Buzzing bees in the day.
Everywhere greens have emerged
Fresh and moist and innocent
A wave of Life cresting
Before summer’s heat
Makes it all tired and dry
Dashed upon the beach
In its inevitable fall to winter.
But in this moment ...

This is cottage life
warm cup in hand i take stock
as the cool air caresses my face
the smells of dawn comingle
the lake ever so still with
sounds of nature waking up
there's nothing more precious
than this moment and
the sense of awe i feel
i am undeniably blessed

April BluesI like hammocks.
I like buzzing bees.
Unseasonably warm days.
Or maybe more like hours…
In April, things get taken out.
Then put away again.
My favorite shorts.
My favorite flowers.
My favorite everything.
Even when it’s supposed to be cold and stormy tomorrow…
We don’t believe it.
So we pull out clunky lawn furniture.
And mow the...

February rain
Has grains of ice
April rain
Has promise
But both have in common
To make equally wet
February has short evening
And a long night
April has a long evening
And a short night
Equality among months
Is uneven
Like wealth and poverty
That’s why I chose
May
Hope the vines will grow strong
Last year’s harvest
Was sour grapes

A Love Hung QuietThe hill was bare, the sky undone,
The veil was torn without a sound.
Red streaked the wood, the earth stood still,
And love hung quiet, pierced and crowned.
But dawn returned in linen white,
A folded cloth, an open stone.
No trumpet called, just wind and light,
And grace that walked the garden home.
Now light outlives the longest night,
And hope is...

Flowers, Saints and SeasonsBright, bright light of dawn, surrounded by the tall, tall flowers.
A newborn flower, newly drawn while O’er me others tower.
A life began amidst so many, cradled close to mother’s plenty.
Mild, mild days of childhood, surrounded by the fresh, fresh flowers.
A vibrant flower ‘midst the wildwood while on me blessings shower.
A life so good amidst so...

Hiding, riding in clouds
You come down from Heaven
Kissing leaves and flowers, filling streams
Sometimes merciless…pouring
Other times gentle…misting
Sporadically invited, frequently intruding
Persistently presumptuous
You can be cool or warm
Soft or hard
You may clean our wrath
Soothe our soul
Quench our thirst
Whether you come in showers or seasons
Leaving puddles of sorrow or pools of joy
One thing is consistent, absolute…
You are always falling…...

SHAMELESS NAKED TREES: A HAIKU TRIOTrees’ leaves were ripped off,
leaving nakedness behind
with teasing winter:-
Nude trees not ashamed
as winter winds teased them;
their hope barked in spring:-
Through thrusting winter,
naked trees never gave in;
waiting coming leaves:-
