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
Spring Forth
sunrise
Lunar Queen
a new moon rising
bringing blossoms to springtime
blooms: the cat's meow
Ready, Set, Rise
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
Find the Light
sunrise to sunset
i follow the moon and sun
winter outdoor joy
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
Winter Sunrise
light frozen in time
sparkling for the morning
(lit for the mourning)
Boxed In Day
aurora’s fire
brings day of recovery
from Christmas chaos
Sirens Give Warning
a night of sirens
gives way to a pink sunrise
and everyone’s well
Friday Night Lights (x2)
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
Too Hot to Believe
only this sunrise
shaped by feared wildfires
could make these strange scenes
