Sugar Maple was enjoying some little fame
From folks near and...

A Poet For All SeasonsI am not the perfect poet,
you and I both know it,
though surely we could share,
our time with rhyme and reason,
springtime, snowdrop, couplets,
summer days of sunshine sonnets,
autumnal skies of falling paper leaves,

For the sake of the children,

Follow their transition along the seasons
And cuddle our nervous excitement through
Columns of xylem...

The Life AcrosticLasting in summer's gleam, my childhood's delight.
In autumn's hug, I seek insight.
Fulfilling longing dreams, spring blooms lively.
