Do not wrong the dead. /
The graveyard is full of fools /
who in life found none.

Balance
Life is a balance /
along a picket fence — /
one step at a time.

This day
Part of the morning. /
Thoughts of another’s life. /
His moment or mine?

Even
From the root of death /
life blooms, maybe foolishly, /
but never in doubt.

Life begins
Blueberries obscured. /
Unfolding with each moment. /
Gracing the future.

Breeze
Life for all its faults /
Hangs like a Spring water drop — /
Waits for a freeing breeze.

Arise
Arise hidden life. /
Beauty begotten by time. /
Spring forth in wonder.

Life
Mushrooms grow on death, /
turning a lifeless tree trunk /
Into life support.

Solstice
Winter loves slowly. /
Its long shadows stretch like life /
compactly marooned.

Gravity
Gravity, oh, you /
turn my life around. Bend light /
my expectations.
