It does not matter
Where you are:
Jungle, mountain
Old or new,
Plastic, wood
Or bamboo, too.
There is play here
To be had
If you wish to …
And you do.

Peak’s Bones
Photo: Na’ama Yehuda
Ancient stone
Not disowned
By old time’s
Marching on.
Newer walls
Chaperone
To contain
Buddha’s throne,
And only the peak’s
Crumbling bones
Tell of years
Now long
Gone.

Springing Time
Photo: Na’ama Yehuda
They push up
Through cold ground
Where morning frost
Still abounds
And color
The park
So a new spring
Can spark.
(Not quite this year’s spring photo … yet – this one being from early spring in 2017 – but it nonetheless infuses hope for soon-to-be cousins of these blooms enlivening the park!)

Rock Gathering
Photo: Smadar Halperin-Epshtein
Gather ’round the rocks
As daylight lingers
Onto land,
And sunlight’s fingers
Tickle children
In windowed shade
And sun.
Gather ’round the City’s park
To frolic
As Spring comes,
And as the promise
Of green growth
Comes closer
Dawn by dawn.
(While today is the Spring Equinox, the photo itself is more promise than reality … for the trees in Central Park are yet to bud and green, but soon they will … and so the photo holds a sight near to be seen …)

Saving Daylight
Photo: Na’ama Yehuda
Cherish every moment
Left
Of light as
Suns will set.
Hold on to the
Deep rewards
Of daylight breathed
Through soul,
And saved.

Fitting In
Photo: Philip Coons
Are they starting?
Oh, hold on!
You most certainly
Belong.
They did not invite
Your kin,
But I’m tall —
I’ll lift you
In.
After all,
Without us there,
History won’t be going
Anywhere.

In A While
Photo: Na’ama Yehuda
In a while
There will be all colors
Of the rainbow
And then some
More.
In a while
There will be radiant
Greens and sunny yellows
And all the different
Shades of
Purple
To show.
In a while
The monochrome of winter
Will make way for
Brightly colored
Spring
To make eyes and hearts
Glow.

In Contrast
Photo: Smadar Halperin-Epshtein
The days stretch on
In sun and shade,
Highlighting the contrast
To the lifespan of
A butterfly,
Its new wings splayed
In the warmth
To dry.
And I wonder
What the ancient rock thinks,
In contrast,
Of the human
Lifespan
Fleeting by.

Light Tilt

Tilt the world.
Let the ocean,
Pour
Itself
Into your heart
In molten
Light.

Blush Blessing
Photo: Atara Katz
May your day be lit
By sun
And new grown things
On path to home
And love within.
May the closing year
Bring calm
And blushing joy
And flowered hope
For what begins.
