James Marshall Goff Poet Free verse

Pine Needles

Winter should come if depression heals
Walls break down and chickadees rejoice

Grandaughter resurrects old recipes
Fresh-squeezed orange juice pours from Venus

Aligned again, planets orbit my healing
Resting in the palm of my soft pine path

Trusting nature-

                           Trusting

                                          Nature
