“Morning”

Morning

Snow and yellow sun /

Hurl white into the morning. /

Touched by morning blue.

“Shapes”

Shapes

Fog enters the night, /

swirls around with damp delight, /

obscures the cold light.

“Glass sun”

Glass sun

The molten glass sun /

Oozes fire along day’s edge. /

Cooling into night.

“Light drips”

Light drips

The sun flows beyond

the horizon and the day’s

light drips into dreams.

Earth in shadow waits.

“Unlatched”

Unlatched

Unlatched gate swings free. /

Raindrops dangle from the bar. /

Winter wind whistles.

New Year’s promises /

Held frozen in ice, /

an old oak leaf embalmed by /

water and time.

Winter takes its toll: /

leaves crunch, sun fades, memories /

fill the dark longing.
