Flowing Rock

history
is made of
change

Dress Up Just For Yourself

ordinary rock
adorned with
lichen lace ruffle

Waltz In The Woods

young trees
shadow dance
on the rock face

Atop The Rock

alone
while together
with everything

David Hockney’s Water

deep in the woods
in the small brook
his paint brush paints

Making Music

all the peepers
dance
to the fiddlehead’s tune

Resurrection

every year
spring
is born again

They Stand In Solidarity

the tree trunk curtseys
to the power and durability
of rock and stone

Mystery Of Snow

cloaked in cold
insulated by the thing
from the thing

This December’s Interval

rock, leaf, ice, snow
elements and artifacts
underfoot

Proximity

missive
from the future
fall’s imminence

Nature’s Time

flowering sundial
it’s gnomon
the coulds

They Meet Each Spring

enduring rock
perpetual phlox
kindreds

Granite Face

head cocked
piercing eye
shy smile

In Endless Variation And Subtlety

mighty granite
displays so many grays
in the shale of the palisades

Myself and I

in sunlight
I stroll
with my shadow

Kiss Me Over The Garden Gate

at the flower’s
request
love and affection

Fireworks

amidst
lichen sparklers
explosions of red

Whale Back

black rock
breaches snow
leaf waves splash

Granite and Lichen

ancient friends
in company since
the beginning of time
