when you touch the clouds
do they become green leaves
do you share secrets
in a place far from home,
do you ever feel alone?

water flows smooth
beneath an ivory bridge
toward foreign shores
I strive to make it across
in a single leap to you
(personal photo)
the hometown team
returns to a media blizzard
an icy reception
but underneath it all
little hands clamor for attention
(personal photo)
red berries
dangle from red branches
with crystal drops-
nature’s display of jewels
pales next to you

November snow
chills the air, freezes trees
right outside our door
inside we light a fire
Birchwood keeps us warm
(personal photo)
bent and gnarled
wizened shrubs watch passersby,
these secret keepers
wait until spring to release
beauty they can longer restrain
(personal photo)
cold metal rises
from rough barren ground
stark on the field
yet it loops to form a heart,
links our lives to something warm
(personal photo)
when I look up
the world rises with me
we soar skyward
my hands reach out
to clasp a comet tail
(personal photo)
as the sun fades
lights blink one by one
across the horizon
I recognize your halo
extending toward my heart
(personal photo)
we walked the lane
along a dark green fence
sensing eyes on us
we knew our dalliance
would be tomorrow’s news
