Away

in the woods
in the quiet and calm
carry on, carry on

At The Sunflower House

every size and kind
of sunflower
under the sun

On the East Knoll

lambs gentled the landscape
making space for weariness to rest

Good Morning

morning graze
the river flows
and songbirds serenade

Pray

for the peace
in the pasture
to cradle the world

Herd on the Hill

the gentle slope
the tender grass
sweet lazy grazing

Dirty Knees

mud season
mother earth’s
warm fertile embrace

Panes

red barn
holds a multitude
of views

Grazing

Cows find
spring’s sweetness
in tender young grass.

Wardrobe Change

When the grass greens
it’s nearing the time to take off
your winter coat.

Open Door

The pond frogs serenade the cows
with an early evening lullaby
when the barn doors are open.
