Blue Canoe

ready for adventure
one paddle
already dipped in

Freedom

deep green
afternoon
light blue canoe

A Lingering

red canoe
a memory
of summer’s kiss

Waiting Red Canoe

her reflection swims
a memory
of last summer’s youth

Birch Bark

What shall we do together dear useful friend
write a letter, build a canoe, kindle a fire
or listen to the wind in your leaves?
