“I love to watch the leaves change
then tumble into grass-wrapped fingers
of vibrant but obscure autumn streams…”

In the Candlelight
“the fire from the east
rising on dark lilac peaks
is warm—divine light”

Lest We Forget
“in the end—we realize we never noticed the beauty
—because we were too busy trying to create it “

I Am a River
“conspiracies are dark dams of shallow minds
but hope and light are soft falls of a deeper love”

Nature’s Song

beneath her ginger yarns of dawn
have you crystal courage to hear
the harmonies of her sacred song”


My Dream Within Dreams
“I was nurtured by a loving family
buried in a hibernaculum of hope
held in a myriad of young dreams…”
