Complacent leaves hang
listless in hot humid air
no reason to stir

autumn horizon
the falling rain, scatter of
leaves on the frost soil
the falling rain, scatter of
leaves on the frost soil
farm fields are ready
on the island ripe barley--
wind ruffles your hair
on the island ripe barley--
wind ruffles your hair
monarch on milkweed
a still bee on astilbe
rumble of thunder
a still bee on astilbe
rumble of thunder
evening drifting in
over green waves as a mist
closes the curtain
over green waves as a mist
closes the curtain
Crocus peeking out
purple, snow lined beds dark brown
rich with Spring's promise
purple, snow lined beds dark brown
rich with Spring's promise
bright sun, burning earth
bench in the shade, wind blowing -
life philosophy

Thunder in the hills
summer blows through the dry grass?
too much left undone
summer blows through the dry grass?
too much left undone
leaning together
three linden trees drip fragrance
carried on the breeze
three linden trees drip fragrance
carried on the breeze
Green fields thrashed to mud.
Clouds heavy as iron plates.
May?no mayflies yet.
Clouds heavy as iron plates.
May?no mayflies yet.
Thunder, storm, lightning
Sitting on that mountain ridge
With monsters and gods
Sitting on that mountain ridge
With monsters and gods
Sun rips through tissue
Paper clouds to place his hands
hotly on my arm.
Paper clouds to place his hands
hotly on my arm.
Moisture in the air
Leaves changing colors early
Mists cloud the Basin
Leaves changing colors early
Mists cloud the Basin
Moving against time
From spring into the cold snow
Landing, clicks, belts off
From spring into the cold snow
Landing, clicks, belts off
Gazing at the clouds
Children point out many shapes
Topics of their dreams
Children point out many shapes
Topics of their dreams
chill winds laboring
summer dies a sultry death
the birth of autumn
summer dies a sultry death
the birth of autumn
showing only thorns
through patches of silent snow
dreaming of a bloom
through patches of silent snow
dreaming of a bloom
brown poppy stalks wait
the wind's artistry in fire
orange memories
the wind's artistry in fire
orange memories
fir flame and west wind
conspire to pumpkin the moon
in a smokey eye
conspire to pumpkin the moon
in a smokey eye
full yucca moon ghosts
starving black basalt river
thin rapids bleed snow

thin rapids bleed snow
In zazen at dusk
I dwell on time's roaring wind.
Then, a firefly
I dwell on time's roaring wind.
Then, a firefly
Knocked down by the rain,
The maple seeds glow pale green
On the wet sidewalk
The maple seeds glow pale green
On the wet sidewalk
softly falling snow
my breath, warm and visible
white puffs in the air
my breath, warm and visible
white puffs in the air
windy afternoon...
watching the circling black clouds
drop to lashing rain
watching the circling black clouds
drop to lashing rain
Cool grayness masks all
Ships pass in silent respect
Fog horn bellows out
Ships pass in silent respect
Fog horn bellows out
Ominously cold.
Snow beating endlessly down.
Bonding inside, safe.
Snow beating endlessly down.
Bonding inside, safe.
Late spring breeze tosses
wine and cheese tasters senses.
Ant soiree begins!
wine and cheese tasters senses.
Ant soiree begins!
unsettled patterns
the moon shine plays hide and seek
with a chance of rain
the moon shine plays hide and seek
with a chance of rain
Sleepless nights approach
As clouds pass along the sky
Taking dreams with them
As clouds pass along the sky
Taking dreams with them
Parachuting down
In daylight through passing clouds
Entering daydreams
In daylight through passing clouds
Entering daydreams
sky for a canvas
sunshine sand and rolling sea
clouds erase the paint
sunshine sand and rolling sea
clouds erase the paint
birthday barbecue -
a murmuring of starlings
cloud the horizon
a murmuring of starlings
cloud the horizon
Snow flurries, North End
pizzeria signs glowing,
showering rubies.

showering rubies.
Three river city-
Pittsburgh, winter wind searches
through empty buildings.
Pittsburgh, winter wind searches
through empty buildings.
Trees seemingly grow
From a fog bank that hovers
Just above the ground
From a fog bank that hovers
Just above the ground
White cotton ball clouds
Stream across an azure sky
Nature on parade
