Upon hearing the gulls in Ireland,
I wondered how one can warmly
recognize an unknown place.
Recognizing Ireland
Tag Archives: nature
Blue Bench
Bright blue bench, only the winds of autumn
and the shifting snows of winter will keep
you company in the coming months.
Blooming Roses
Lady looking over the horizon,
set your sights on all that is possible
and keep the roses blooming.
Terrarium
Sweet little greens growing in a contained world–
If only I could nestle at your side, deep within the silvery moss
and nap against translucent crystals.
Time
Time passes quietly–
where does it go?
September 1
The tree outside our balcony is changing,
although the days are still warm.
September steps forward,
and I bid it a peaceful welcome.
Garden Cat
Watchful garden cat,
you look so earnest–
I envy your solid ambition.
Today: pink and purple
If I could color everything with crayon,
today, I would choose pink and purple.
Geese
Watching the geese fly across the morning sunrise,
hearing their distant honking calls–
wishing I could call back to them in return.
Goodbye
As my children walked toward the first day of school,
I whispered goodbye to summer.
