The world
Over my shoulder, /
Earth is a small orb in space. /
Still, it fills my dreams.

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.

Wrinkles
Blue haired old lady /
Streaks of gray and white abound /
Wrinkles fold Earth’s face.

Iron bars
Iron bars may not a /
Prison make, but the Earth may /
Embrace you forever.

To see
Horizons begin /
in a cloud or on a ridge,/
bending light, earth, hopes.

Bowl of clouds
The bowl of the sky, /
Nourishing heaven and earth, /
Overflows with clouds.
