Regret
by Michael R. Burch

Regret,
a bitter
ache to bear...

once starlight
languished
in your hair...

a shining there
as brief
as rare.

Regret,
a pain
I chose to bear...

the torrent
of your hair...

- JANUARY -

A freezing cold evening

Where the stars shining bright

With frost blade flanks

From mouth and nose steam

In the clear silence

White untrodden snows

Nature's frozen pulse

Sleep like a little baby

One gracious moon

Let the flowering of love
outlast a winter
season.

in her Gospel of Permaculture class,
one Friday morning
while sitting on her crass

And steadfastly search out,
Nestling between ridge and bluff
Amidst the folds of a foreign

Several acres of unkempt ground
Fallow and rough;
Upon which stands...
Crumbled stone walls
With an exposed slate roof in
