Amid the Oaks [Haiku]

it’s cool & rainy, 
but the canopy is green:
last days of summer.

Green Hills [Free Verse]

fingers of forest
 interspersed with 
  fingers of pasture --

the hidden & 
 the exposed --
 
two kinds of danger:
 being seeable &
  being unable to see.

is the mind fearful
 of being exposed
  the same as the mind fearful
   of being confined?

Cypress Glow [Haiku]

cypress tips
glow with afternoon sun:
yellow for a time.

Green, Green Hills [Haiku]

the green hills,
 lit through monsoon clouds,
  change shape before me.

Green Front [Haiku]

squall line coming:
 the rains will freshen the fort,
  those walls grown green.

Light & Color [Haiku]

light makes greens greener,
and clouds glow brightly; its lack
makes the blues bluer

Green Pond [Haiku]

the green pond
 reflects the green world
  in its own hue.
