Butterflies and dragonflies
Songbirds, doves and hummingbirds
Congregate in my urban Eden
Deep purple iris, coral hibiscus
Bright pink caladium, lavender daylilies
Entice my early . . . more

Humbly I come before the throne of Life
Where Father God and Mother Nature reign
To lay down my burdens, fears and woe
Seeking renewal in Their loving care
Alone in the quiet, verdant Forest . . . more

I was wandering in the mountains, poking around to see what I could find. I went into a thicket of willows where I found some long, heavy caribou horns. These horns had taken on rainbow colors and had . . . more

Suffused cumulus
Precipitates the first drop
To flip a crisp leaf

Distant thunder rolls,
Shadows roam along the rocks—
Raindrops splatter one

I have made gold. I rarely mention this because I don't expect anyone to believe it, but it's true. I made gold as a sort of initiation ritual when I was a graduate student working in nuclear chemistry. . . . more

A typical wind is dead air where I’m from. We’re used to it. We like it that way. Great for playing frisbee and having late night picnics at camp by candlelight.

Is there anything more conducive to meditation than staring into the depths of a campfire?
Sitting by the edge of a lake
On a crisp fall evening

Fog mists, rose and gray
Sway at the end of false spring days
With charcoal trees
Above a black horizon's lay
Cream puff clouds scud at play
And blush to glow and stay
Above the warm . . . more

Once more I hop to the lip and stand
On the edge of my world, and stretch--
What’s that? The wind is fierce today!
My feathers flutter--they feel so good--
But I grip the nest for dear fledgling . . . more

A few days ago, cycling back to my home from the supermarket (yes, nearly all 5.4 million Danes use a bicycle), I passed by a small gray sparrow that had been run over by a car. I've seen that . . . more

Stones grew overnight
In the field behind the house--
Complete with lichen!
Two inert forms in dry grass,
Nose to nose, waiting for mom.

Timely
Stoic lily
Supplies a floating pad
For a yellow and black tree frog
To set up a trap for small airborne ones
Who pass off this bumpy, strange leaf
To their lasting chagrin
As dinner starts . . . more

Not yet day, Not quite dreaming
Lying half awake at 3 a.m.
Listening to circles in the sand
Thoughts of you drift by
My sleepy mind's eye.
And even . . . more

It's been over a week since I left Faith at the Airport in Pensacola at 5 A.M. in the morning. I needed to rush back to Massachusetts and get my house in order before school resumed on Monday . . . more

Shattered remainder
Of life ceased in the desert
A crematorium floor
