To gather garden pollen.
I enter to forage
There are vegetables to pick
They attack mercilessly--stung!...

Cold, frigid morning.

Sun beams down on frosty leaves.

Birds ignore the chill.

Beneath the carpet of leaves

They forage for breakfast....

Goldilocks walks inside a house
It was the home of a giant mouse
There was no hot porridge
But there was a forage
Who tries to make her his spouse...

the hands of faith
forage in the earth
for worms
under shady rocks
along the edge 
of the lake
to use for bait
and sit by its edge
with rod in hand
to catch dragons 
within...

chatter
            distillate
spread out

charm
            guess

             bluff
forage
            then
sidewise

               retreat...

Deer forage in the woods
No time yet for being prey
Their call re-echoes


Rotwild grast im Wald
Noch dort droht keine Gefahr
Ihr Ruf hallt wider


Venado herbaja en el bosque
Ningún tiempo aún para ser presa
Sus gritos resuenan...

Four chicks forage alone in the woodland, motherless.
Strong of spirit, determined, they hunt and peck anyway.
Before dusk arrived, another hen and rooster protected them.

Day 
after day,
night after 
night,
the lonely tall pine
embraces her many
lodgers
in her stiff outstretched arms.
And in every nook and 
cranny they forage, hunt and horde
before the coming winter.
And in 
return 
they
flinging 
their refuse
to the soft earth....

I sleep all day out of sight
In a tree hollow
Coiled up in a ball, am I
Stay still; don’t wallow
When night doth blossom
In the dusk I will forage  
Just call me “possum”

White sheep, you graze February grass,
nip up the weed-fresh forage
without raising heads,
chew gently dreaming in your sunlight,
fearless, because we shepherd you,
stand guard. We fence out all ravening mouths
beyond our own shadows and watch.
The night you sleep and we sleep – 
	what then?...

Thunder and storms over trees in rage
Waves in oceans and seas converge
Birds and beasts in wilderness forage
Floods and heavy rains that gauge
Gales and leaves and dirt on stage
Blowing, freezing of currents deranged
As clouds shower lightning and rains engaged
Oceans and seas divide unhinged...

Gold bedazzled leaves rimmed in crimson
Squirrels, bunnies forage for acorns and berries
Crisp air beckons to don a favorite sweater or fleece
Children lament shorter days and homework soon
Sights, smells, attitudes beckon us 
As nature changes her wardrobe

Are you sure you want the truth?
purgatory and torment may be unleash

A childs crys hollow in the wind 
As you try to hide from your sin

A hidden horror is rigth next door
They search for self satisfaction and nothing more

A commonplace of bitterness is forage
your conscience sceam intill its hoarse...

for you i am whatever you want me to be.

i would morph myself into a butterfly if that's what you want.

i would peel off this skin i already possess and sew on a new one.

i would forage in the forest for wings and attach them to my back.

is that what you want?

have i been a caterpillar for too long?

The bluest of hours,
Half lit fingers and flowers,
Forage for insight
In the rarest of light,
Iron hearts heaving
The burden of 
Memory leaves in
The presence of doubt,

Slowly but surely,
The infusion descends,
Hues of transition
Cannot be defended in

The monochrome twilight,
Auguring the anxious end....

Prayed for courage

And in return was given porridge

Topped with salt instead of sugar

And water for milk

Cooked in a kitchen of filth

To be eat out of a chipped saucepan

With plastic chopsticks for cutlery

Tracing help into forage ferrell wild oats

The holy father's sins 

Handed down to his children...
