Tendrils of strong flame
Curl throughout an endless maze
Yet cower in rain.

Thunderous applause
Rose ? more pretty and more sweet
Following the storm
Rose ? more pretty and more sweet
Following the storm
Early morning fog
Greets another born new day
Sleepy eyes now blink
Greets another born new day
Sleepy eyes now blink
a bumblebee blends
into a black-eyed Susan?
cloud-shaded hillside
into a black-eyed Susan?
cloud-shaded hillside
fiery pink bison
stampede purple plains above,
thunder storm in spring
stampede purple plains above,
thunder storm in spring
Snow-capped mountain peaks
Last vestiges of winter
Storing desert hope.
Last vestiges of winter
Storing desert hope.
warm rain on snowdrops
i explain to the children
where the snowmen go
i explain to the children
where the snowmen go
salty ocean breeze
palm trees shadow sun-kissed skin
coconut heaven
palm trees shadow sun-kissed skin
coconut heaven
soft breeze caresses
rosebush birthing infant buds
sun kisses sweet babes
rosebush birthing infant buds
sun kisses sweet babes
blue sky lying down -
tourists' selfies disturbing
the sound of the rain
tourists' selfies disturbing
the sound of the rain
We took the kite out
A monarch against the clouds
Two minutes ten feet
A monarch against the clouds
Two minutes ten feet
Sun pokes through the clouds
Casting water images
Reflections of you
Casting water images
Reflections of you
Chirping spring peepers
Bullfrogs' deep guttural croaks
Silenced by the wind
Bullfrogs' deep guttural croaks
Silenced by the wind
Pink cherry blossoms
fall softly on the sidewalks.
It is raining Spring.
fall softly on the sidewalks.
It is raining Spring.
cool, wet breeze stretches
on streets curling in corners
where black crickets sing
on streets curling in corners
where black crickets sing
Rain is romantic
the umbrella moved aside
for the wettest kiss
the umbrella moved aside
for the wettest kiss
Winter melts away
Like a song lost in the wind
Birds come soaring home
Like a song lost in the wind
Birds come soaring home
black skies , scattered rain
a glimpse of my guilty heart
shrouded by darkness
a glimpse of my guilty heart
shrouded by darkness
Waves pummel the rocks,
sea spray sent to drown the sky.
Lightning burns through clouds.
sea spray sent to drown the sky.
Lightning burns through clouds.
An Osprey Feather
Gliding Above Silent Dunes
Freedom on the Wind
Gliding Above Silent Dunes
Freedom on the Wind
geese hunkering down
next to wind rippled puddles . . .
shoppers scurrying
next to wind rippled puddles . . .
shoppers scurrying
The aspen tree bleeds
her bloomed petals of fire
confetti the wind.
her bloomed petals of fire
confetti the wind.
wings beating the air
moonlight slipping through cloud breaks
winds travelling west
moonlight slipping through cloud breaks
winds travelling west
swirling skiff of snow
leaps and spins on windy gusts
a phantom ballet
leaps and spins on windy gusts
a phantom ballet
Sunlight vanishes
Ripe pears sway like jade earrings
Sullen summer storm
Ripe pears sway like jade earrings
Sullen summer storm
first snow of winter:
I lace up my father's boots
and my mother cries
I lace up my father's boots
and my mother cries
Footprints in the white
Warm soup and hot chocolate
Fog on the windows
Warm soup and hot chocolate
Fog on the windows
The snow is falling,
the smell of cookies and pine
fill the Christmas air.
the smell of cookies and pine
fill the Christmas air.
Swaying in the breeze
The jasmine bends with the wind-
Following blindly
The jasmine bends with the wind-
Following blindly
sharp August north wind
tastes Aberdeen's North Sea beach
waits for November
tastes Aberdeen's North Sea beach
waits for November
rain wet grey pavers
glisten under the low moon
old night winks at dawn
glisten under the low moon
old night winks at dawn
the wind turns the leaf
over and over again
'til the earth is new
over and over again
'til the earth is new
Misty sky and sea
Kiss amidst the horizon
Breathing in sunsets
Kiss amidst the horizon
Breathing in sunsets
Mercurial time.
New pages smelling acrid
taste of rain and plum.
New pages smelling acrid
taste of rain and plum.
My shower is next
Mother Nature washes me
Winter rain is here
Mother Nature washes me
Winter rain is here
Pale against the snow
Remains of a cocky deer
Await hungry beasts
Remains of a cocky deer
Await hungry beasts
