Earth Songs

As I was walking in the park this morning I heard this sound. I couldn’t figure out what it was, so I stopped, looked and listened…

rustling trickle
of falling autumn leaves –
earth songs

Eavesdropping- A Quadrille

Steeped in nature,
Eavesdropping –

Mass flutter of wings
erase trickling rustle
of falling leaves

Sparrows on a lark
on pine branches

Call of the crow pierce
the babble of the creek

Unseen scurry under dried leaves
sends a shiver up my spine –
Eavesdropping halted!
