Threshold
Rival bumblebees /
joust across the dark flower: /
pollen and honor.

Working
The bee’s late day buzz, /
courting among the flowers. /
Evening reaches out.

Rising to the sun, /
sunflower reaches skyward, /
into its future.

Fades
Love in the Mist fades, /
grows spindly and goes to seed /
in the ground and heart.

We can no longer exploit the resources of this earth—the trees, the water, and other natural resources—without any care for coming generations. Common sense tells us that unless we change, we won’t survive. This Earth Day let’s resolve to live in harmony with nature.

Memory
Red columbine, /
shooting star through April rain, /
lights my memories.
