I am here, enough
Warm against a purring cat
Deep breath, I am here.

I am here, enough
Warm against a purring cat
Deep breath, I am here.

Are you under ferns?
Resting and restoring now
Until bluets come.

Final glow of warmth
Grazes tree tops by ponds edge
Cold air on its tail!

The best things in life
Are free, no debt, no worry
Deposit of joy.

The weather is warm
I paint with windows open
Backyard birds sing songs

A place where the heart
Can beat freely with safety
Love for all humans.

On the island loop
Fall along the Haw River
Green gold sky, water.

Come with open mind
To the mat and a journal
And now let it flow.



A tree falls to ground
Around it a sapling grows
The forest goes on.

Off we go through woods
My sweet gelding, steady, strong
He knows the way home.
