Summer Blooms Summon Fall

the garden’s call of color
an invitation
to the leaves to turn

Contemplation And The Bench

the empty bench
holding space
for all of my thoughts

Frog On The Toadstool

I’ll do
what I want
is his only thought

The Garden At Noon

from the shade
I take a long drink
of her colors

For The Bees

the garden bed
a candy store
offering lavendar lollipops

Everything Rises

as morning sidles
to the edge of the garden
the gingko bows to the day

A Subtle Flourish

above
last year’s leaves
a complexity of delight
