Unruffled Saints
High mountain peaks
above stormcloud weather rise
The depths of the sea
below whirlpool waves lie

Poplar And Beech
Beseeched the beech
the poplar
asking how to be more popular
Replied the beech
'Move to the beach.'

Rapeseed
She buried the thought
seeds of the longago rape.
Spirit fields then did ignite
with rapeseed light.

Seaward Driven
The waterfall into
ribbons
has by the rocks been riven
but onward it roars
by its seaward destiny driven.

Londonderry
Their disagreement melted
away when she realized
he'd said 'Londonderry Airs'
and not 'London derrieres'.

Whispers Of A Rival
They whispered
the arrival
of hate's new rival
As pink dawn approached
night feared for
his very survival

Brave Peonies
First the bravest
purple peonies
through
the pickets peeped
followed by the
more shy
pink petunias peeking.

Cloud Jewelers
Clouds, master jewelers,
setting in gauze each raindrop
as night places star diamonds
on
a purple sky backdrop

Pink Butterflies
Unfurled flitting pink
butterfly flags flutter
in forests
near
unfurled flags of
phlox
in the meadows of Fairfax

Tidal Wave Moonbeams
Tidal waves fractured
fullmoonbeams
into silver slivers
while dewdrops slippery
gathered in new
ladies' slippers
