the night’s water nymphs
resolve into rocks and logs
at the break of dawn

frosty walk
in all the forest glades i pass,
i see the frosted blades of grass;
this windy morning, i can hear
this whispered warning: winter’s near!

every
mountain lake i find
is a sight
to behold,
and offers a peace of mind
more precious than gold

Duel Nature
There must be an up
For there to be a down;
Something must be lost
For something to be found;
There has to be chaos
If there is to be a plan;
There must be a woman
For there to be a man.

fiery autumn leaves
don’t warm my extremities,
but do warm my heart

How Everything Got Here
Once upon a time, there was nothing.
I mean, there was nothing but nothing.
In fact, there was so much nothing,
That that fact became something,
And once there was something,
It quickly exploded into everything.

change of clouds
all summer, the clouds had their fun,
but now there is much to be done;
in autumn, they race
at a feverish pace
past the featureless face of the sun.

pretty in pink (shadorma)
unhappy
that the autumn brings
no colors
to the pines,
mother nature sometimes strings
them up in pink vines

shot of the night 9/16/25
from out here in the woods,
the auroras are breathtaking
as they shimmer and dance
over the silent, stately pines.
heaven seems so close.

Sunday Thoughts 9/14
What does the spider know of beauty?
When soft morning light spills over
The horizon and illuminates his
Intricate, dew-laden construction,
Is he even able to perceive
The beauty of his creation?
Likewise, when we scurry about
In our “ordinary” human lives,
Are we creating something
Beautiful that we can’t perceive,
But is, perhaps, on full display
To any being of a higher order?
