Look at the sky on a bright sunny day
Watch the trees as the breezes blow by
See the grass stretching up toward the sky
All is at peace as the world passes by.

Here we are
planted, rooted atop
another’s base
seeking shelter under
an intricate fan
of drooping mango leaves;
it’s fruit hangs heavy
tempting taste.
Privately, . . . more

There are so many that have been hurt
And get angry at others for their loss or shame
Yet so very many are out there that suffer
In every country that you can name

Today I am long grass
wearing the wind.
Today I am river
flowing the golden sunpoints of time.
Today I am hunger
rising from the river to the sun
catching the wind in my heart

How lovely you are
with your crooks and turns,
reaching high
into the bluest sky,
A perch for the
songbird's sweet serenade,
nature's loveliest playground.
Your age is showing; . . . more

The mist slowly rises over the lake,
the same lake that I have spent
countless hours, thinking of you.
Today everything looks eerie and gray,
much the way I'm feeling without you . . . more

Mountain air tickles my senses,
and I close my eyes just to feel;
Gentle breeze ruffles through my hair
I take a deep breath just to heal;
Something about this mountain air
calms this . . . more

They would all know of course,
She knew. She could picture them,
Their harsh judgements;
Their stares; their polite smiles,
Their behind-the-back talk.
Unmarried mother is one thing,
But virgin mother, . . . more

In the nook of a forgotten valley
A fountain gushed from depths of earth
At its feet bubbled a stream
Carrying crystal waters.
That tranquil spot in natures' lap
Was a welcome refuge

In one giant whoosh
they soar into the heavens,
filtering the sun,
shadowing the earth;
Like a mighty army
they swoop down;
Nothing is spared
as they search for
summer's leftover's, . . . more

towering over the earth,
providing shade from summer heat,
nesting for squirrels,
and a perch for morning's song.

Sway at the end of false spring days
With charcoal trees
Above a black horizon's lay
Cream puff clouds scud at play
And blush to glow and stay
Above the warm . . . more

Once more I hop to the lip and stand
On the edge of my world, and stretch--
What’s that? The wind is fierce today!
My feathers flutter--they feel so good--
But I grip the nest for dear fledgling . . . more

The arch of a glorious rainbow,
Illuminated bow of colours in the sky,
Seen through liquid prisms,
Water drops painted with light!
Stretched across the horizon,
Splash of contoured hues,
Secluded doorway . . . more
