December 2011

ascending
Mount Taranaki ...
summer heat

entering
the human heart ...
advent light

in spite of
the weather forecast ...
morning rain

moon viewing ...
the cool air sipped
between clouds

morning praise ...
out of the mouths
of babes

bearing up
under the beams
of love

birds of prey
feathering their nests ...
advent greed

wasted breath -
exhaling words
all at once

laurel wreath ...
a poet dusts
away words

softly treading
a shag pile carpet ...
dream lover
