Cane and me
Substance or shadow, /
Science or superstition, /
Love’s dark truth, Hate’s light?

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

The music
I see a cello /
And maybe three violins. /
Flowering music.

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

Vacation
Summer clouds to sky /
Sand to beach, water to sea /
Embrace your beauty.

Across the face
Bee collects pollen /
Across the sunflower’s face. /
Heat is time rising.

Walk on the wild side
Walking sometimes wins /
Even when feathers offer flight. /
A Daedalus day.

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

Beauty
A flower’s beauty /
is built on moments of work. /
Kindness upon toil.

Deadheads
I deadhead lilies, /
snapping old petals so new /
flowers don’t suffer.
