Tree shadows and birds /
tryst at the feeder; lovers /
shedding leaves and seeds.

Burdens
Blooms give way to seeds. /
Beauty and function balanced. /
Hope burdens summer.

Arise
Arise, bloom, and shine, /
new suns of the old Earth: /

Dead heat
The warmth of summer /
Has died into cool autumn. /
Winter holds cold seeds.

Seeds
Autumn seeds descend. /
Winter’s cold underworld. /
Spring’s ghost whispers hope.

Taste
Taste grows from the soil /
Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, then fruits. /
Seeds become flavors.

Remains
Dead sunflower head, /
ashtray for the shells left by those /
feasting on your life.

Sunlight moment
Head heavy with seeds. /
Petals shimmering with light. /
Namesake life giver.

Sharing
One squirrel in the ring. /
Another squirrel waits and wants. /
Sunlight and bird seed.

What remains
Summer bloom faded. /
Fall echoes in winter’s husk. /
Scattered seeds whisper.
