I’m Already Looking Forward As the height of golden color Becomes baked and matted I can already see in mind’s eye The blooming locations of next year’s beauties And smell the sweetness of black cottonwood resin A mere six months to wait Things may be so different I don goose down and Gore-Tex In preparation of the colder and greener moss walks Today’s azure brightness however Forecasts a vital turnover From nebulous to distinctive images Only of fertile soil building The winter wait will create cell space Time will combine the correct mineral and organisms I along with garden and forest will renew As that is what seasons and bodies do By Laura E.

Elusive Winter Sun Elusive winter sun Shine through frozen limbs And warm my chest Bring my inflexible bones back to life Show the way to peace I once observed In your summer shining Warmth through and through Basking in the new grass Sleepy relaxed muscles A dragonfly lighting On my stillness By Laura E.
