A poem about Nature
That's writing itself

Grand Canyon
Some people are voices
On the edge of rocks
With steep slopes and cliffs.
Some people are echoes
At the bottom of walls
Carved by rushing waters....

I feel an October ache
when moonlight lies on branches
and dreams as old as the South
drift on the Western breeze.

If I wake,
I'll buy turquoise on Tuesdays
and wait for a bus to the Grand Canyon....

Grand Canyon Jump
This is an ode to Sally-Jo,
Her silver spurs and the horse she rode,
As their mighty leap slowly unwound
They jumped the Grand Canyon in a single bound,
But it was deemed wind assisted as a hurricane blowed....

Grandmother's Song
First look at
 Grand Canyon
eternity’s birth

Your eyes changed
forever
in awe of its girth

All words into
whispers
each view but a gift

Alive in its
legend
— unchanged in its myth

Calling To Me Dear
When I want to visit God,
  I go to the Grand Canyon

Where she talks to me plainly
  and talks to me clear

Staring at eternity
  I look into her depths

As she calls to me familiar
  —and calls to me dear

(Grand Canyon South Rim: February, 2019)...
