“wildflowers paint
lonesome deserts with sprinkles…”
“our home awakens
when she enters its warm nest…”
“as bright as sun
as sure as stars
as dogged as fire…”
“before you depart
plant your glowing legacy…”
“I realize again—that between anger’s red rage
spread upon squawks of yellow flaming fury
and soft cooler heads of a kind flowing river
blue will forever remain my favorite color”
“peacemakers are artists of time
sculpting the present moment
as they brush over drab melancholy”
