Sunshine Journal
Feuille morte
dried crackling leaves —
though dead —
are never quite still
Blend & blur
Late winter and early spring blend and blur
in pleasant days and chilly nights,
penetrating sun and gentle cool breezes
with stirrings of life, subtle and green.
Mornings that light ever earlier rouse us, but
sunsets that still come in evening’s youth lull.
Desert winter departing
Early February in the desert—
The sun is springtime warmth
The breeze, winter’s leftovers
All kinds
tortoise clouds
barely crawling across the sky
hare clouds
drifting swiftly over our heads
chameleon clouds
changing every moment
borrowing colors from the sun
dragon clouds
breathing fire into the horizon
Change is in the air
Yes!
the delightful serenity of an autumn breeze
colorful leaves meandering as they please
Stillness
a vast lawn of vibrant green grass —
one neon magenta bougainvillea flower
resting idly in the warm autumn sun
Questions in the dark
The candle of “Amen” answers the darkness.
Spring’s sure well-done over, at 100°
Poetic words flow out much better in pleasant climes
Springtime and autumn, more friendly for rhymes
Winter’s good too, the self reflects well in cold times
But blazing summer melts words and numbs minds
Green grace
As the sun is tilting from winter to spring
Nature begins her grace of glorious green
