back home
the old truck comes to rest
in its ruts

Alaska, the Golden Gate,
Death Valley, Yellowstone
Glacier, Acadia, Wind Rivers
and then permanently parked
until yesterday….

'67 Chevy the day I let it go to a better life...

’67 Chevy
the day I let it go
to a better life…

could be I’m tired
or lost, but to close my eyes
and nod off
while the world goes on
gives me a certain peace

milkweed on one plant from bud to bloom...

milkweed
on one plant
from bud to bloom…
