The Painted Fern

a perfection
of details and form
waiting to be discovered

Bounce

discovering
joy in
everything

Enormity

its tiny size
somehow made
the joy of its discovery
more enormous

Hide and Seek

eight, nine, ten…
petal peeking round the corner
reveals her hiding place

Edges

in the places
where we meet
we find who we are

Before Me

I’ve been ready
to be done with winter
and then nature placed
more frozen beauty before my feet

Destination

Deep in the dark woods
suddenly the sunny meadow
appears before you.
