Green Hills [Lyric Poem]

So many hills I have seen
That grow so soft and thick and green.
Though jagged rocks sit down below
The grass and shrubs and weeds that grow
Through cracks and gaps, in mud patches --
Sprawling wide from tight-knit batches
That stone cannot constrain or kill.

Something Moves [Haiku]

something moves
through autumn grass
at water’s edge.

Weeds [Haiku]

summer grasses
wave atop a once mighty fort
that's gone to seed.

Something Moves [Haiku]

something moves
through the tall grass --
mystery rump & ears.

Golden Grass [Haiku]

Winter drains color
from the barren woods, but
tall grass turns gold.

Strange Land [Haiku]

tropic reversal:
tawny grass of April;
lush green October.
