sundown
a raccoon dips it paw
in the pool

-Reid Hepworth

first spring
a whale breaches
blue sky

-Reid Hepworth

reaching through
the cloud covered dawn
siskins song

-Reid Hepworth

until i’m fully awake hooting owl

-Reid Hepworth

Northern Lights
a willow frond grasps
the river’s edge

-Reid Hepworth

solitude
crackle of the fire
for company

-Reid Hepworth

she dreams
of running free
wildflowers

-Reid Hepworth

payday jingle of the bookshop bell

-Reid Hepworth

chipmunk chatter
echoes through the forest
midsummer morn

-Reid Hepworth

open water
the boat lists
to one side

-Reid Hepworth
