Summer’s pond
autumn’s dance floor
winter morning
2

A passing car…
I look up startled to see
a patch of blue sky!
3

honk! honk! honk!
a distant chorus merges
with the empty sky

Summer’s pond
autumn’s dance floor
winter morning
2

A passing car…
I look up startled to see
a patch of blue sky!
3

honk! honk! honk!
a distant chorus merges
with the empty sky

gift’s gift
the hand of passersby
music fills the air
1

Autumn’s rhythm,
dancing water and ice,
a leaf joins the ballet!
2

Pausing,
I appreciate the clearing
of last night’s snow

Leaves floating
water and clouds,
floating

Colorless autumn
The old creek slithers, dissolving
falling snowflakes
1

Tying my boots…
the late Autumn sun
gives me a tap!
2

On a morning walk…
I come across a broken branch
scattering its leaves
3

Crackling
with each step…
morning frost
1

An autumn day’s work
pruning for spring blossoms…
unveils last spring’s gems
2

Reflections of passers by
pause on a leaf
in autumn raindrops
3

Ancient winds
sing this autumn day
in the pines
1

An autumn afternoon,
resting on branches
birds and leaves
2

A pine needles lands
in a palette
of autumn snow
3

You just lost your leaves
Burning Bush in the front yard
holding all this snow!

Last night’s raindrops lie
like spring blossoms
autumn’s flower bed

The autumn moon wanes
dancing by the Venus star,
not a cloud in the sky!


First frozen autumn dew
hurry, look! look!
before it melts away!

Afternoon autumn sun
Fragrance of Ponderosa Pine
Butterscotch or vanilla?

On the lakeshore
A seedling wavers
On a thread

Golden Aspen leaves
Taking flight
Dancing in autumn’s breeze
