Arise fair, noble sun. /
Light within me the folded /
Promise yet foretold.

Into the Earth
The stream of color /
the leaves of sound /
the grounding of light /
into the Earth we are bound.

Stepping stones
Petals in morning. /
White stepping stones to the sun. /
Light and shadows climb.

Roundabout light
In darkness we take /
a turn in the roundabout. /
Toward the light we give.

Mind’s eye
Shadows and daylight /
Peonies effuse with white /
Shades of the mind’s eye.

Past present
beauty in the light
raging from long ago.

Wings
Wings turned to the sun, /
spreading gentle hymns to the light. /
Spring songs without words.

Setting
The Earth turns away /
Receding her face from light. /
Buds hold spring within.

Light
Before the windows /
Shines the ceiling lamp, hanging /
Empty and yet full.

Light climbing
Light climbs the night limbs, /
Touching bare the winter trees. /
Moon a ripe, white fruit.
