Bending
Bending the daylight, /
Shaping the shadows, the bridge /
Spans more than water.

Seasonal waters
It is the season. /
I drink from the mouth of death /
to quench my parched bones. /
Though I shall never be done /
for death now flows forth from me.

Caress
Sky touches nothing /
yet still caresses the Earth’s /
all-embracing beauty.

Fall songs
Listen to the rain /
of leaves and the songs of birds; /
symphony of fall.

Morning fog
Sun wears morning fog, /
peeks from behind damp fall trees. /
Light and thoughts refract.

Green eye
The green eye of fall /
spies from between the gate slats, /
crouches with the leaves.

Moments
Moments are time’s stones. /
Some build bridges to the heart. /
Some become fall leaves.

Hidden
Hidden in each leaf /
is the chance to do good — /
if you can find it.

Half-moon
Autumn half-moon, high, /
waves to the world, good-bye; /
night soon fills the sky.

Brushy Mountain
Watchers and watched speak /
Memories wet and cold as /
A Saturday rain.
