Little Dancer


...Little Dancer...
...Dances on the last breath...
...of the Leaves of Yesterday...
...save the one...
...placed in the book...
...as a reminder of the one...
...who dances on Rainbows...

The Only Witness


...Once racing water...
...hangs in space...
...on a cold winters' day...
...in an out of the way place...
...while the only witness...
...clings tentatively with grace...

The Crimson River


...The Crimson river flows...
...silently over the rock walls...
...quietly into the past it goes...
...when the winter snow falls...

Leaf Carpet 3


...One by one...
...floating softly on air...
...shivering in the sun...
...lighting with a whisper...
...Autumn has begun...

Leaf Carpet 2


...Green leaves turn a rich orange...
...for a day the forest is ablaze...
...then on a clear night a hard frost forms...
...towards morning a gentle rustling can be heard...
...falling gently the blazing leaves pile up...
...carpeting the forest floor...

The Nook


...we all need a nook...
...somewhere to cling...
...a shelter for our heart...
...an out of the way place...
...where few will look...
...a point of view...
...which is unobstructed...
...and left unchallenged...
...a place to heal...
...rest...
...and regain our balance...
...to leave secure...
...for another time...

Varigated Basil


...My leaves are pointed...
...they have teeth...
...pluck them and my scent fills the air...
...spice up your fish...
..flavor you meat...
...add me to pine nuts...
...throw me in sauce...
...use me please...

When the Wind blows


...the breeze moves us through the sunlight...
...our colors mix and separate all in one movement...
...such a glorious ride...
...we shout with joy...
...as we scatter the light...

Silver Edges


...gilded in silver...
...edges of lace...
...tucked under a bush...
...an obscure treasure...
...passed by...

Riding the rail


...I grew green on my branch...
...soaked up the sunshine...
...took a bath in the rain...
...rustled in the breeze...
...till I turned orange...
...to take a ride on the rail...

Leaf Curls


...We budded together...
...blew in the wind as one...
...threw our shadows in unison...
...collected the dew as a team...
...and fell in time...
