With its soft insistent low pitched tone
Such depth and much more th...

The Fall
...Eve of fall
denuding of trees
No longer lush whispers heard through the leaves
A low pitched moan a creak here and there
In warning to all listening

brass wind chimes,
little birds feeding,
fountain tinkling - the whole works.
I sit, empty my mind,
intone a low pitched Buddhist hymn
which scares the birds away.

...A circle of small white stones
brass wind chimes,
one lone, pink-blossomed cherry tree,
birds twittering

We yearned adventure...my brother and I
The woods out yonder- called our names

Then sweeping the mess into a crevasse

The Hum
...What’s that infuriating hum,
that droning, distant, low-pitched sound?
No one can find its origin,
but maybe’s and I-think’s abound.
In my small rural area,
not all can hear this thi...

The Ship
...startled to sudden wakefulness
by the sudden lurch of the ship,
fear rose in my soul
cold, damp hull next to my berth,
