Vicarious Warmth

far off
in the distance
four fields bathe in the sun

Storm Window

mountains of snow
gather on each pane
showing us this storm’s terrain

The Colors Whisper Now

and each
falling leaf
opens a new view

Borrowed View

flowering frame
a passageway
into the garden’s delights

The Garden Bench

in morning shade
watching
a summer day unfold

Interval

do nothing
see
everything unfold

Calling Forth Green

between
the snow and clouds
evergreens conjure spring
