Around the pond ducks
Set up their nest in tall grass
Green heron returns

Around the pond ducks
Set up their nest in tall grass
Green heron returns

Taken for granted
New roll of toilet tissue
A button for heat

Laden with spring buds
Bare trees glow with fresh new growth
Color dots woodlands.

Wind chimes sing a tune
Pine trees sway as winter moves
Leaving room for spring.

The seasons move on
Yet my palette still says fall
And the birds sing spring.

Come on people now
Try to love one another
Right here and right now.

Dream of distant land
Where foggy mountains meet sea
And sea gulls laughter.

Long grey winter days
Just below the woodland ground
Flowers wait to bloom.

After all these years
You are still the one I love
My own Valentine

Life is full of curves
Some cold as ice and frozen
And then the spring comes.
