In the distance
multiple crows caw.
It’s awful early
for a brawl.

In The Night Sky
An unblue blue moon,
but bright and full nonetheless,
let its beauty shine.

Morning Birds
They don’t even wait
for me to finish laying out
the seed before they’re there,
poised and ready to eat.

Moving To A Different Beat
In our fast paced world
of speed and multitasking,
it takes discipline
to pause, slow down, take a breath,
focus, and simply savor.

Spring Visitors
We’re glad to see them come
and we’re glad to see them go:
those rain soaked days.

Emperor Of His World
When asked about
the round thing in
his drawing of the sky,
the little boy said
it was a purple moon.
“But moons aren’t purple,”
said his friend.
“Mine is,” he replied.

A Run But No Hit
Rounding a sharp carve,
I saw a small squirrel and feared
it was too late, but
he was both a quick thinker
and an amazing runner.

Sometimes
I can spend more time
and energy resisting
tasks than it takes to do them.

Yet Again
It seems like the rain
hasn’t gotten the message
that this is Sunday.

Unshared Pleasures
Plants, bushes, and trees
soak themselves in rain’s liquid joy,
but Knox? … not so much.
