Like passions of smothering, dreamy nighttime, to which we gladly succumb.
My work took me to many gardens, set in the butterscotch zones of...

Who writes its hope, its grace, its peace
From the gentle rains, the tranquil rivers and streams
The broken tears of a mourning dew, silent as the joy
Who abides...

all beneath its surface now dormant
sleepy animals curled up in their dens

We were on an airbus, big and long

Beneath the Sugar Maple
I've lain beneath this sugar maple before.
In fact, I know it quite well.
And it's seen me and watched me throughout the seasons.

Reflecting hope over snow covered ground,
Softening the heart and soul…

The kiss of kindness, blissful – healing,
Wistful memories, silent dreams
All the blessings, the many things…
That make up a lifetime, timeless...

The potato plant's roots keep yielding her precious fruits,
As the youth of the Spring's breeze blows through the trees,
To provide the shadows of life on its green leaves,

To the sigh of winter’s whispering
Just beyond the window, a mystery
Breathing laughter through the heavens
In stars, shimmering messily, like they
Know what it is to be glowing just beyond

Mutual Staring

When I look out of my window,
I see you staring back.

Collecting stars. He had a little pan
To sift them as they fall, for fall they will
Some crumble quickly into silver...

spring things

Hollowed by a winter grey, whitened paint infused.
