Main Street

magnificent maples
by the white picket fence
autumn Americana

Unexpected Snow

trees still wearing
their autumn colors
put on a shawl of white

Snail’s Pace

gorgeous October days
ever so slowly
we tuck the garden in

 

Onward

into the misty unknown
carry your dreams
while seeking the sun

Field Colleague

we share a moment
then take off
to our work

Savoring The Sunshine

summer has not yet
opened the gate
to fall

Feverfew By The Fence

the second bloom
an insurance
of immortality

Queen Anne and Goldenrod

the meadow
arranges
a fall display

Essential Elements

steel heron
waits by stone bowl
filled with rain

House Wren On The Garden Rail

where to stay?
when all the world
is home

The Frog Overseer

from his porch perch
supervising
summer’s bloom

Raspberry Crabapple

birdhouse
beneath a bower
of blossoms

You Can (But You Can’t) Fence Me In

the dandelions corralled
but their wishes
cannot be contained

Spring Fling

the rock garden
a riot of color
bursting into bloom

Spring’s Approach

breathless
she flies in
on the west wind

May Storm

new leaves
and tender perennials
shiver beneath a blanket of snow

Equinox

a touch of snow
first day of spring
March in the Northeast

The Truth Of Scale

the proportion between
bird box and forest trees
makes me right sized

Vicarious Warmth

far off
in the distance
four fields bathe in the sun
