Petals Fall

-------Petals Fall-------

Lilac petals fall

upon

a single nettle leaf

And carry 

on a wind

into the river

And in

to 

Sea.

Like this,

making Love

is a falling to pieces,

A generative undoing

of self

into the whole.

Thank you, Spring

for allowing us a chance

to forgive

And to make room

for your sweet light

to move.

-------

No Borders

-------No Borders-------

To the war-minded 

and in control

abundance is a threat.

For a world without borders

is a world

where all can eat.

Listen close 

to the plants

they say are weeds

And know 

that here,

upon this earth,

Every

one

is free.

-------

Dusk on the Lake

-------Dusk on the Lake-------

Already

I feel 

so sweetly held

by these 

waters.

But thank you,

peepers,

for bringing me

even

closer in.

-------

Imagine Worlds

--------Imagine Worlds-------

As conveyed by Spring,

the days of cold and darkness

are becoming into light.

Be present 

here.

To the revolution of the Earth,

To the changes 

that are 

unfolding.

And upon the Heron's return

may the worlds

we each imagine

Come too 

into 

light.
