Nature Photography

For a few years, I went outside and simply looked for art in the yard, and took the photos that were there already.

Haiku For The Seasons

how small the song
of an unknown bird
quiet memories

*

praying the Psalms
old rose bush leans
against evergreens

*

lake and sky
the same color
Autumn Equinox

*

late November
sun fills a glass
for a time

Time Of Singing, Fall 2013

*

staying with the light
I read in different corners
of the house

*

how still
the winter landscape
I whisper the Psalms

*

sunrise
daffodils bowed by rain
recover

*

I wonder
what today’s poem may be
lilacs in the wind

rain today

rain today
how soon we reach
the end of what we know
and how deep
faith continues to grow

ordering
a Christmas wreath
for my parents’ graves
even though I know
they are not there
