Pale against the snow
Remains of a cocky deer
Await hungry beasts

Winter's drums drumming,
Rooftop snow, thunders to earth.
Burdens slipping free.
Rooftop snow, thunders to earth.
Burdens slipping free.
footsteps in the snow
none stray from the beaten path
the rose is dying
none stray from the beaten path
the rose is dying
Yellow butterfly
beats sorrow against the wind
traveling alone
beats sorrow against the wind
traveling alone
dormant soul flicker
against the harsh endless wind
match in a dark cave
against the harsh endless wind
match in a dark cave
Hanging water orbs
web necklace of cool-kissed mist
only air could wear
web necklace of cool-kissed mist
only air could wear
The arid wind blows
Tumbling through this pointless world
The monotony
Tumbling through this pointless world
The monotony
rime of silver frost
recedes as the dawning sun
creeps across green grass
recedes as the dawning sun
creeps across green grass
Hop on my back child
Let us storm the seven seas
The sons shall boat now
Let us storm the seven seas
The sons shall boat now
a crystalline glow
icey dreams with wings of breath,
diamonds in the snow.
icey dreams with wings of breath,
diamonds in the snow.
Golden wings live long.
Paper will float in the breeze.
Live as you're folded.
Paper will float in the breeze.
Live as you're folded.

Petal snow drifting,
Cherry-pink swirling carpet:
Walls fall at your touch.

Gingered ivy leaves
Hugging the oak to keep warm
Jack Frost stalking you

Jack Frost stalking you
Bowed willow frames hang,
Pastel panes of crystal hue.
Thunder shattered hail.

Thunder shattered hail.
leaves and clouds flying
sky wrestles with a sapling
smooth limbs sway entwined

smooth limbs sway entwined
fifteen years after
the nine eleven attacks . . .
cloudy with birdsong
the nine eleven attacks . . .
cloudy with birdsong
Sun's sanguine tendrils
Gently caress morning clouds
A promise of rain
Gently caress morning clouds
A promise of rain
Storm clouds full of rain
Lightning splits a darkened sky
Blooms sprout from wet soil
Lightning splits a darkened sky
Blooms sprout from wet soil
Singing glassy rains
over bitter storms and seas-
the cry of a child.
over bitter storms and seas-
the cry of a child.
rain runs under stones
chills the almost ripe garden
pleats the evening air
chills the almost ripe garden
pleats the evening air
Humidity wafts
slowly, lazily, freely
through this August day

through this August day
Wild rosebush planted
near weather-beaten prison
springs forth scarlet hope

springs forth scarlet hope
empty school playground
tetherball clip clangs on pole
in the twilight breeze

in the twilight breeze
wild grass at sunset
shimmering with insect wings
warm breeze on hilltop
shimmering with insect wings
warm breeze on hilltop
clouds passing above
pretend the houses below
are strange animals

are strange animals
He is an old shirt
worn and faded, a dry leaf
before winter winds
worn and faded, a dry leaf
before winter winds
laughter fills the pool
sunshine strikes the snow shovel
buried in tall grass
sunshine strikes the snow shovel
buried in tall grass
left leaves cry and cling
to barren swaying branches
wind whispers be free
to barren swaying branches
wind whispers be free
Fall softly spring rain
my grandmother's lips are dry
awaiting the bloom
my grandmother's lips are dry
awaiting the bloom
blackbirds on asphalt
scar the frost for frozen crumbs?
wind song stirring trees
scar the frost for frozen crumbs?
wind song stirring trees
purple pendulums
dancing in a gentle breeze;
we contemplate spring
dancing in a gentle breeze;
we contemplate spring
midwinter south beach
wind-driven sand moon-pulled waves
each dog bows then plays
wind-driven sand moon-pulled waves
each dog bows then plays
The storm is brewing
Darkly in the western sky.
Now, time to be brave.
Darkly in the western sky.
Now, time to be brave.
Moon in the window
Whispers turn to city fog
Hear the world, kiss me
Whispers turn to city fog
Hear the world, kiss me
