creeping into the photo
burning from within

Spring Forth

May 23, 2021 / firmlov / Leave a comment
a midnight rainstorm
brought early this raging creek
and stole seed-planting
yet, cycle views burst
with blossoms of spring color
saving the lost day

Ready, Set, Rise

March 16, 2021 / firmlov / Leave a comment
winter sunrise strokes
as soft as with a paintbrush
with red glow on snow
power lines define
the hidden energy here
ready to rise up
a long-shadowed pup
feels tall in the morning light
ready for the day

Morning to Night

cats and flowers rise
as soon as the sun is bright
to welcome rare rain
please, rain, end this drought 
this plague of world crises
waiting at the door

Friday Night Lights (x2)

August 28, 2020August 28, 2020 / firmlov / Leave a comment

what’s more beautiful—

this red, water-begging dawn

or my daughter’s grin?

each touched by showers

so desperate to soothe our souls

from this hellfire
