and wish I could feel the cold and
the sting on my tongue.

Trees in December
Trees undress at nightfall,
we watch them silently and turn away.
Holly
Druid brothers, I pick the holly and send
thoughts of peace through torn shreds
of time and space and ripples of ancient memory.
December Marsh
The marsh in late fall exudes a musky scent
that rides the cold breeze and clings to my coat.
Amber brambles crunch beneath my boots while
the sunset sifts through leaves and branches.
Breathing deeply, I let the soft rays warm my soul.
River View
A thousand days can come and go
and I will never take you for granted.
English Phone Booth in the Mountains of Arizona
Everything is temporary, and curious.
