Spring Snow

Small flickers of white
Floating over bright new buds:
Winter’s final taunts.


Golf

Hushed, somber whispers
Cultivated fields of grass
Sown and fed in wealth


Soft, Singing Whispers

Soft, singing whispers
Chorus from the restless night,
Communing with trees


Spirits of Spring

A flicker of red
Followed by bright, brassy calls:
Indomitable


A Frozen Roof

A griddle of tiles
Heated by a distant flame:
Serving up rivers


Last Days of Christmas

Still, brittle beauty
A moment: preserved and dried
Cherished kindling


Awaiting Results

Awaiting results,
I both have covid and don’t:
Schroedinger’s patient.


Cornered by Feelings

Cornered by feelings
The fluttering heart escapes
In turning pages


And So

Planted and tended,
It grew until abandoned –
Dormant and waiting.


Without Dreams

A life without dreams
Drifts like a rudderless ship
Tossed by restless seas.
