Juicy Moon

Enlivened
Enlightened
Alive
Juicy juicy life
——————–
The peachy orb rose
at dusk, held tender
by intimate breezes
kept aloft and rising
by simply being
I breathed in the texture of it
and the scent of blooming trees

coyote moon

The girls were laughing
outside my door
late last night
a wild party
whooping and yelping
on the prowl for prey
in the yowl moment
answering owl’s question

Coyote moon
the smile askance

Double Rainbow

From the new vantage point
on the rise
as we approached the rest of the day
in chatty conversation
and non-vehement arguments
there appeared the double rich rainbow
so clear and colorful
our mouths were stilled in awe
How is it my heart remains
beating steady in my chest,
as the tears flood my cheeks?
Simple beauty…

Burrowing Owls

Out past the wild field
where the mustard blooms
and the crows fly
in the back forty
of the huge empty parking lot
There are the owls
quietly standing in ones and twos
watching the sunset
with silent reverence
guarding their burrows
in islands of dirt
Full of quiet dignity
as they’ve accepted their lot…

Daily Dalliance

A dalliance a day
just gazing at the sun
early morning ritual
standing on the earth
breezes kissing cheeks
Gratitudes
grateful for the gift of life
grateful for this day
grateful for the warmth of sun
and his loving light
grateful for my mother earth
and the strength she does imbue
grateful for the winds of change
and the fire of Spirit
a dalliance with Beloved One
