a turbulent time
the planet in an uproar
the earth pushes back
steady roll, unrelenting –
it seems warnings are no more

Spring Dance
a pair of cardinals
in my garden – in spring dance
they zip here, fly there
pecking at freshly tilled soil
a cold and windy spring day

Dusk
on nearing daybreak
night eases to a halt
day moon takes its place
readying for dusk
the sleepy eyes of dawn
which comes with its own demands

Holding On
Last evening while the setting sun was writing its own story cantankerous clouds to the right were leaving deep smudges in the evening skies.
The bird songs outside my window were unrelenting, piercing the roar of the harsh spring winds. Even the delicate cherry blossoms are standing up to this latest rage.
It seems we are all to discover what we are made of. In the end, we are all just holding on.
the ire of spring
that will not be placated –
belligerent storms

Spirits
Plumes of smoke follow her
swirling as she moves from room to room
“Smudging mean spirits”, she explains
As she moves about, there were whispered words escaping her lips. His young mind wonders,
“Who is she talking to?”
He’d best be well behaved today.
