straight for long, but
it’s in the curves
that skills are tested
and beauty can be found.

Grey mist of morning
rests on the land,
exploring
the heavens
without leaving home.

Sometimes,
like a tree in winter,
we’re stripped bare
in preparation
for a fresh start.

Sun-lit day, cloudless sky –
nature’s reminder
that nothing, not even
the darkest of times
lasts forever.

Dogs frolic
at the dog park
as owners
discuss disturbing
Washington news.

Clear minds,
warm hearts,
steady hands
hold us together
when things fall apart.

Every day
I am reminded
there’s more work to be done
regarding how and when
to hold my tongue.
JDG
Romping and rolling,
fetching and catching,
splashing and dashing –
free at last
at the dog park today!

She’s on the lookout
for her real self.
She cannot remember
when or where
she left it.

One tree
laden with gold –
a stirring hallelujah
amidst a dirge
of gray and brown.
