winter dawn -
this day's sad song
is a gull
crying out above
a shrinking world

a dot-to-dot
written across time
only now
do I see my life
for what it is

red lights V7 N1 January 2011

an old love
remembered -
beneath the snow
does the meadow dream
of spring

there's no pretence
out here
where the river
runs dark...
everything just is

Happy New Year!
