Yah is at my right hand, I shall not falter.
Maltreatment, disregard, cruelty,
abuse, defilement, contamination
do not go unnoticed,
by the corporeal or the incorporeal...
Poetry
a ray of sunlight
a child
a hobbling man
a winging bird
a question
sitting by a stream
enveloped in subtle autumn beauty
feeling solid ground beneath
breathing invisible life-giving air
awareness awakens...
a spark of light caught my eye and then another and another they came and went like miracles, whatever those may be
A monarch butterfly flutters among the bushes and flowers beside the pond.
Memories rise up...
They disposed of their enemies, killing seventy-five thousand of their foes.
Skunk cabbage flowers are popping up in wooded wetlands...
out of the car and into the woods,
walking a snowless early winter trail,
so many browns beneath the feet...
