winter silhouettes
a copse of sailboat masts cut
from the dawning sky
Sol
gathering sunlight
wakes the tangled vines of shy
morning glory blooms
–
rustling leaves
a shaft of light
warming my cat
Impediments
impatient lemmings
craggy rocks block their passage
to the sea below
–
spring rains
a beaver dam
overflowing
Intimacy
lips brushing her neck
the whisper of her shoulder
just touching my cheek
–
caught standing
in your warm
footprints
Outdoor
deck lights turning on
unexpected visitor’s
nose against the glass
–
rising smoke
camp fire
embers
Glimmers
slow rhythmic moonlight
shining across the surface
of a mountain lake
–
an old rope swings
calm lake water
before the fall
Freedom
white sprays of sea foam
torn loose from the crashing waves
aloft in the wind
–
open ocean
gulls soaring
into the wind
Change
light plays on the walls
alternating blue and red
the sirens, silent
–
puddles in the street
turning to steam
in the sun
Sol
the sky burns crimson
in anticipation of
the ocean’s embrace
–
dawn chorus
an homage to
the rising sun
