Two leaves search for spring. /
Rain falls and searches the leaves. /
New starts and old ways.

Wings
The thorns are first /
and then the leaves bud forth: /
wings for the flowers.

An astronaut aboard the Apollo 11 took this photo in 1969.
We claim this blue dot. /
The seasons share our small sphere, /
and yet, we cannot.

Entwined
Old and new embrace. /
Winter entwines with Spring: /
leaves both brown and green.

Facade
Once a building, now /
reclaimed by leaves and lichen, /
glistened by the rain.

Life
Mushrooms grow on death, /
turning a lifeless tree trunk /
Into life support.

Sentinels
On the quiet stairs, /
holding hope for next Christmas, /
sentinels wait….

Tracks
All travel alone /
Each in a boxcar of flesh /
Whistling goodbye.

Unbidden
Unbidden, Spring blooms, /
poking through neglect and pain, /
yellow and graceful.
