winter’s end
watching for springtime
new tulips

Waiting for the Flowers
Poem-a-Day
distant thunder
darkening skies
the thunder in the distance
guns…or rain

I wrote this poem on 24 March during a Poetry Heals workshop online, but made a few changes and found a picture to support the mood. It was a reaction to the shootings that had/have been taking place recently.
Echoes, 4 November 2020
alone for a while
gone are the distant voices
that faded, now lost
left are echoes of my words
burbling in the pebbled rill

Almost Winter, 3 November 2020
early autumn dusk
quiet settles on the woods
pop of burning logs
cold snows brush the windows
an almost-winter lullaby

Halloween Weather, 1 November 2020
ice along the path
tattered clouds race a blue moon
wind against the glass
soft voices in the distance
as I drift back into sleep
