Month: April 2025

From a rock, water Wildly miraculous Being in a drought

Attracted like beesPink blossoms can’t be ignoredPromising beauty

To ride on water Paddles play hidden currents Joining with life’s flow 

Golden cedar boughsRipen abundant pollenPoised to fill the air

Cliffside bench of rock Offers perfect rest from climb River, sky and shade

Ah, the simple life Before the goslings arrive Riding calm waters

Motion betrayed him Color and texture of rock Then, a flash of blue

Crabapple heaven Impossible to convey Such a luscious scent 

Sensing the long drought Native grasses rush to seed Very much aware 

Canyon conifers Dwarf this human’s existence Encouraging awe
