WINTER FORGIVES
*
Spring helped winter ice
.. of cold to let go
.. and in forgiveness
in freedom's joy to flow
*
SPRING LEAF LIGHT
*
The flooding beams of
full moon at night
in the spring leaves
become limelight
*
AERIE GRAVEYARD
*
Nary a crimson cherry
nor blueberry
in the aeries...
there are only cadavers
where eagles gather

Woodpeckers tapping
Baby crows yapping
Baby trees sapling

Sunbeams dappling
Branches rapping
Lakewaves lapping

Winded sails snapping
Boat flags flapping
Barnacles napping
Deckhands grappling
Waves whitecapping
And shorerocks slapping
Thunderrolls clapping
