The night forest…
in the cold
winter forest
under a crescent moon
where all is calm
and silent
but for
the flutter of wings
live
deep below the ground
a number of beings
gently sleeping
among roots and worms
waiting to awaken
at the first sign
of spring

Winter piggy to make you smile…words
She was just a baby piglet
not even flesh and bones
but she did enjoy a winter day
playing in the snow

Winter…a poem
winter is heavy
it weighs on one
bending
crushing
and breaking
it’s power is
in it’s ability
to freeze
and to pile one snowflake
on top of another
until
branches
snap
and people
buried deep
inside their coats
head for warmth
while winter snickers
and watches them run

Winter…a poem
Christmas is over
a new year is ready
to begin
a soft
gentle
snow is falling
and if you listens
carefully
you can hear the
heartbeat
of winter
through the stillness
Beauty…a poem
beauty
is in the eye
of the beholder
we know this to be
true
the above photo
is beautiful
to me
magical
leaning toward
other worldly
as if one
could simply
walk into another
dimension
without even
realizing it

Doors…a poem
walking in silence
in a world of
white and shadow
opens doors in your mind
which cannot be opened
any other way
