Preparing for Travel

what spell the wizard
we each set off to see
always changes me

netherworld

netherworld
sacrifice to find my way
smiling sunny rock

Towering Rocks

towering rocks
our children are raised to leave
climbing to new heights

hole in the sun

A hole in the sun
why does her beauty and radiance
swallow my hopes

day

morning sun
when does the day come
a new day comes

Sun on Rock

Sun on Rock
centuries written in light
on ancient face

Dandelion

Dandelions
Child's eyes wide open
Mourning the weeds

Tin Flower

tin flower
incandescent sunlight
brighter than life

Butterfly

Butterflies
change one dream another
is it a sin to wonder?

Star Dancer

Star dancer
music in a young girl's mind
must be beautiful

4th

4th of July
Candlelight dances
against exploding sky

First

touch in a mirror
spring comes in one
who is first to speak

Again

pass snowy mountains
and sun charmed water
our hands touch again

Float

Watch the moon float
graze gently across the sky
it watches us float by

Summer Rock

The sun reaches out
Rocks warm then burn
Fingers reaching out

Mist

Pervasive mist
Surrounds obscures
Life or Fantasy

Hegira

Fulgora's frown
reaches my warm summer day
Aborted hegira

Moonrise

the moon rises
watching
the moon sets

Drones

The murmur of drones
permeates
blossoms left to grow

A breeze

whither winter wind
blows remote in summer days
pallid summer wind
