Arise

Arise fair, noble sun. /

Light within me the folded /

Promise yet foretold.

Poem and photo: “Into the Earth”

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.

Haiku and photo: “Mind’s eye”

Mind’s eye

Shadows and daylight /

Peonies effuse with white /

Shades of the mind’s eye.

Wings

Wings turned to the sun, /

spreading gentle hymns to the light. /

Spring songs without words.

Haiku and photo: “Setting”

Setting

The Earth turns away /

Receding her face from light. /

Buds hold spring within.

Haiku and photo: “Light”

Light

Before the windows /

Shines the ceiling lamp, hanging /

Empty and yet full.

“Light climbing” haiku and photo

Light climbing

Light climbs the night limbs, /

Touching bare the winter trees. /

Moon a ripe, white fruit.
