baby blooms her legs
on a twenty-mile trek
through city of dreams
Pedal to Petal
baby blooms her legs
on a twenty-mile trek
through city of dreams
poetry
Battle Cry
sometimes the best words
remain trapped behind the view
of silent cycling
Ignite It
just capture this light
bright enough to block the night
and fight the good fight
Roots
history’s learned best
when you can see it firsthand
in a child’s eyes
Baby Brunch Date
biking out to brunch:
way to tackle a cool day
during midsummer
Aquarium Trip
fish day with grandma
an adventure at each turn
they’ll always recall
Solo Time
fun with the youngest
my flower amongst the blooms
that give us this life
Whine with That?
eight miles of views
captured between bickering
parenting is hard
Break the Silence
night still and windless
quakeless aspen leaves above
as you make me quake
Summer Wash
just in time for me:
home visits and meetings done–
rain, clean out this heat!
let summer begin
with a fresh layer of green,
a rushing river
an evening walk
through gardens and mysteries,
a dream awakened
