All the potential
expressed
in so many ways
before the flower
actually blooms…

the beauty
of a bud preparing
to bloom

revealed so long
this grain of wood
on our floor-
the distance yet
we have to go

snails
on the move
over pavers

open- hearted…
what I told my wife
all those years ago

in the yard
the time has come
to look again…

hunting four leaf clovers
students discuss
their childhoods

I linger in the moment
before moving on…

the plant in the window

has gone everywhere

it can

without a plan
I start off on a walk
just to see…

the city
and all it’s business
including a snail
finding it’s way
in a garden…

the importance
of taking it slow
and easy…
