no matter
what happens
the buddha’s smile

 

Buddha face smile...
birch afterlife begun
birch shelf fungus
birch outback with fungus...
birch buns...
maple leaf sun lit
standing on the cliff overlooking the reservoir behind our house 9-28-16-
in bundled bunches a mess of milkweed seeds ready to go....-

late summer…
the trance of sun
on lily pads

 

 

late summer... the trance of light on lily pads
this quiet reach of trees and light...
in bundled bunches a mess of milkweed seeds ready to go....-
flowerfull display...
walking alone- submerged logs come to light ...
