Thinking about green summer days
when the heron flies above the river
and the breeze makes the leaves
rustle and sway.
Green summer thoughts
make a cold March morning
feel warmer.
March Morning Thoughts

Forgive
You turned away–
I try to forgive you a little bit each day.
Listening
I heard the sound before I saw him.
The distant cry of a solitary crow
soaring in cold currents.
“Here I am, over here”, he seemed to say.
“I see you”, I whispered in the wind.
Thinking about the Geese
You were here before the houses were built.
Before the boats roared along the water,
before fishermen cast their lines out,
you swam along this river and called it home.
I envy your organization, your dedication,
your beauty and collected calm.
And I am sorry that we take so much from you,
so much for granted.
Canyon Crow
Meet me at the northern rim of my dreams.
Mighty Heron
I consider it a fortunate day when
we see one another through the river reeds.
Zoo Bird
Watchful and weary, you stood motionless
as your image was captured.
Is your spirit still free?
Recognizing Ireland
Upon hearing the gulls in Ireland,
I wondered how one can warmly
recognize an unknown place.
Time
Time passes quietly–
where does it go?
Geese
Watching the geese fly across the morning sunrise,
hearing their distant honking calls–
wishing I could call back to them in return.
