August Rain at Sunset /

wind through the grasses, light pouring
across the foothill, up the mountain
into the storm.
Winter Pushes Back /
Life and life drives,
Death and death drives,
Opening lungs and hearts -
Sing,
Winter pushes back on Spring.
lime-green spider chrysanthemums /

Glow in the dead night
We give
Penance in the dishpan
Winter wheat
Resolve.
Dahlia /
First Days of Fall /

First days of Fall -
Onion-skin paper,
Golden daisies eight foot tall.
Alight, aloft, a love supreme,
A path, and sunlight through the leaves.
Still. Green.
Until a wing,
Alight, aloft, away again,
Twists - exploding everything.
Alight, aloft, a love supreme.
Alight, aloft, a love supreme.
Rainbow Wall /

April Storm /



Wind Day /

The wind brings glad blessings and new things

seeds, thoughts, dust, strings

carries, twisting over us and through the fields, beneath the careless sky.
The Big Moon /

On the Rio Grande
Over the river
Over the red willow
Over sleeping geese and wild sand birds
Golden mirror rising.
Ice Sketches /
Morning sun through frozen window.



Angels /
Snow Day, Snow Angels


Wedge /
Orange Wedge

Sunset Song /


sunset,
song divides
church and sky
Behold! The Mini Egg /

drastically smaller than any I have ever seen, this egg appeared, not in the nesting box, but in the pen, as though it were an afterthought or a hiccough. Much joy it brings.
Easter Eggs /
Yolk /

a golden flow within, a green pearl without.
wolf-moon /


Moon Glow /
Trips between canyons, earth mouth,
mountain face, swallowing passers through.
Open and spit up a glowing ivory moon.
Golden Reminder /
Ostrich-feathered golden daisies eight feet tall.
Summer passing leaves the scents of fall,
over the mountain, glowing violet,
half moon - rising fast, sun sets sooner every night
pinon pitch burning, quiet, last day light.
