Winter’s trees stand watch
Their last recalcitrant leaves
Heralding the spring

Solstice
On the horizon,
the evening sun stretches low
beckoning the night.
The Void
Seeping like a stain
Across the fabric of time.
I am the darkness.
Daydream
Silently soaring
The caresses of the wind
sweeping though my mind.
Twilight
The last light of day
Paints the leafless canopy
With an auburn glow.
Fire
A vortex of blue
flame howling in the furnace
as I gather glass.
Winter
The night air’s cold hand
reaches down and pulls my breath
in shards from my chest.
Wind
Head out the window,
Ears pinned back, jowls flapping.
That’s one happy dog.
Water
An earthworm stranded
Upon a rain slicked sidewalk.
Shriveled doom awaits.
