unfurled buds,
not drooped to gravity,
tell Spring’s story.

Little Dragon [Lyric Poem]
Ancient temple carved with features:
Beasts, men, gods and mythic creatures.
Imagine my surprise when I
Came face-to-face with this lil’ guy.
The lizard did his level best
To stay stock still with puffed-out chest.
To pass for a chiseled dragon,
But couldn’t keep its tail from waggin’.

World Lung [Haiku]
trunk splits to branches
that stretch to the edge
of oxygen’s crossing.

Understory [Haiku]
understory thrives:
light plants & shadow plants
each finds its place.

After Autumn Rain [Haiku]
pavement glistens;
yellow leaves sodden:
nothing moves... but drips.

Something Moves [Haiku]
something moves
through the tall grass --
mystery rump & ears.

“The Snow Man” by Wallace Stevens [w/ Audio]
One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;
And have been cold a long time
To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter
Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,
In the sound of a few leaves,
Which is the sound of the land
Full of the same wind
That is blowing in the same bare place
For the listener, who listens in the snow,
And, nothing himself, beholds
Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.

Clouds Out [Haiku]
rhododendrons aren't blooming,
but clouds fled & mountains are out!
