2020.11.14: shadow box

ready or not, jump
hand in hand, let’s ride the wind
as long as it takes

to decay and be absorbed
to bud again one fine spring

2020.10.13: next door

the snowbirds are gone
a young couple took their place
mirroring our life

2020.06.30: peaked

passing equinox
sad to see the decline of
the light in the west

2018.10.03: goldenheads

one more wave of seeds
to be scattered by fall winds
not all will take root

2018.04.22: refresh

long awaited spring rain
parched and scarred ground absorbs all
renewal begins
