“Ancient”

Ancient

In the ancient sky, /

dancing through the fog, the moon, /

silently alone.

“Splinters”

Splinters

Morning light splinters. /

Ground catches the fractured glass. /

Clouds and birds move on.

“Setting”

Setting

The Earth turns away /

Receding her face from light. /

Buds hold spring within.

“Bare limbs”

Bare limbs

Bare limbs cannot catch /

The falling sun, yet they hold /

Winter’s fading grip.

“An opening”

An opening

An open mind learns.

An open heart compasses.

An open book starts.

“Dirty legs”

Dirty legs

Nothing brings forth Spring /

But buzzing and the hard work /

Of six dirty legs.

Blueberries

Blueberry buds ring. /

Come now, o’ Earth, bring us Spring. /

Birds flutter and sing.

“Catching”

Catching

Catch the crescent moon, /

weaving through barren branches /

leaves of light leaving.
