We leave our warm houses
and walk the long path
to the meadow, where shadows
are caught in mid-freeze
.
and stillness becomes us,
a breath in the thickets
a widening of eyes
the gentle padding of time.
.
And from the trees
rays of sun
splay through dark branches
and land at our feet
.
as we raise up our arms
to welcome the moment
when light reacquaints us
with Light.

Polish clean
your cutting rocks
my jagged stones
till dawn reveals
prisms.

Teasy breezy May
sun dabbles in shades of dance,
plays tag through the trees.

Sprinkles of sweet gold
sparkle to the forest floor,
honey drops of sun.
