(Cabin Sunset, summer 2025) The Heat of the Moment Settling into our new mountain cabin, Dogs and humans equally overheated In the shadeless August afternoon, The only way to be is naked.

Xiuguluan River flows jade mountain-born among ancestral stones white willows in Ruisui weep dew-kissed cycad fronds catching first sunlight Leaf pearls gather on my thatched sandals Walami earth holds stories in its coolness. Bihe Pond rests hidden in Wanrong’s stillness waters reflecting...

A thousand ships through the dark nights sail, to mysterious lands and adventurous trails. With a thirst for life, I cannot rest, when one is finished, there comes another quest. I travel many paths into the unknown, with each path completed, I know I’ve grown. Though dangers lurk at most every turn, I sense I’m protected; I have no concern. I try new...

We hike the trails where emerald silence grows, The forest hums beneath the morning light, The mountain breathes in rhythms nature knows. The beach wind plays with gulls in seaward flight, We splash through waves, our footprints wash away, The forest hums beneath the morning light. By lakes so still they mirror skies all day,...
