Pause, and
Let your mind wander
In waking reverie
To the places where
Tomorrow’s seeds
Are sleeping
Underneath the snowy
Ground,
Wrapped in the arms
Of memories
Of days
Long passed
And others
Yet to come.

Making foam of sky
With kicking feet
And screeching mouths,
Must be the new spin
Of a hit thing
Going around.

Which way next?
He requested,
Will it be up
Or down?
Are we headed
To Nature
Or perhaps
Sutherland?
Will we go
With the horses
On the bridle path left,
Or take the loop
With the birders
And turn right
At the cleft?

Up and high
They pierce the sky.
Clothing floor
By floor
With glass,
They climb
Through city space
En masse.
In large cranes
O’er river,
Rails and roads,
They build Manhattan
Load
By load.

With slightly curled
Petals’ ends,
She is feeling
Her age.
And she smiles
At the buds,
That unfurl
A fresh edge.
Sun and wind
Kissed her leaves.
Rain had shared
Its own drink.
She is older
But happy,
To live in all
Shades of pink.

In the mood for some tea?
Come along here with me.
There are pooch pots
And kitsch pots
Elephant tea pot, too.
There’s a cow,
There are cats,
Which will be right for you?

They gazed forlorn
Into the light,
Into the lumber
Burning bright.
All that they’d known
Before this plight,
Now kept them warm
Through heartache’s night.
*Dedicated to all who’d lost homes, lives, memories, and loved ones in fires and other disasters.

Stretch above
To where the flapping
Propels you farther
On the breeze.
From there to see
The light retreating
Over Earth’s curve
At day’s reprieve.

Old it stretched
Brooding shade
O’er neat furrows made,
Watching new rows reborn
And the greens
Field adorn,
Growing tall, rising now
Making lush, anyhow.

If nothing else
You can bank
On some peace
Come day’s end.
On a breath
By the water
When a ripple
Extends.
On a sigh
Of the chest
Born of awe
Seeped with ease.
You can count
On some peace
Come day’s end.
Me, too, please.
