catch the winter rain.

Wild blue heron
stands, watching the pond slowly
catch the winter rain.
JDG
first bird up
checks out feeder – launches
indignant complaint
JDG
Small patches of white –
reminder of snowfall past
and the one to come
JDG
A heart beat away
from eternity, I gaze
at the falling snow.
JDG
The hills lie waiting
for the first warm kiss of sun
as moon pines away.
JDG
Near the water’s edge
tall pines sway as wind whispers
secrets to the sun.
JDG
Angled truth, like sun
in early morning, can both
illuminate and blind.
JDG
Frost covered hills rest
undisturbed until crows give
just cause for complaint.
JDG
The night train whistles.
From the dark a plaintive owl
replies,”Who? Who? Who?”.
JDG
Full November moon,
reflecting on pond and land,
finds it to be good.
