Eerie sounds from a mostly frozen lake today. Like sloshing waves beneath fragile ice.
I imagine it laughing at my caution. Waiting for me to fall thru.

Fragility
Fragility’s
suspense
as sleighting hands
deliberate
between meting out
either Shelter
or muted crush.
Privilege
Walking upon frozen lake today
An eagle emerges
then glides away
A privileged life is one of
grace in an everyday.
Future
So much anger in the world
So much hatred
So much kill
Be we quiet madding voices
Be we peaceful
Be we still
Live, honour life
Love, our will.
Pathways
Reaching pathway
to the sky
I pause in winds
consider consequence
contemplate cloud drift
consult cow
passersby.
Room
If you leave
room enough
for me to breathe
we can grow
together.
Towel
Summer’s eve
on water’s edge
sundown
one towel
for two
Hat
For so long
my head could find
no hat
to match the circumference
stretching from ear one
to ear two
So now when you casually reach up
to playfully flick toss
my pale straw friend to the ground
understand
my reaction may be swift
and strong—
my memory very long.
Birds
Small birds
big faces
sat watching
hours passed
my stillness
increased
agitation flutter
passive standoff
who’s intruding who
Enveloped
Around me, said the cat, there was a close and blinding grey mist enveloping all.
I crouched with my eyes closed, listening to the rain and the wind.
