Moment
A tree with no leaves stands at the edge of Willow Lake, Prescott, Arizona.
At any moment
a dove may settle to rest
in the leafless tree.

Changes
On a wintry day in the Sonoran Desert, storm clouds form in the east.
Winter afternoon—
one dove falling from the clouds
changes everything.

Blue Monday: Abandoned Motel
Graffiti defaces an abandoned motel north of Flagstaff, Arizona.
Graffiti mars the old hotel,
It’s feeling rather blue.
Is there some way to cheer it up?
I don’t know, do you?
~~ ## ~~
deepening autumn—
the longing of broken things
to be whole again

Awakening
When spring comes again, brilliant blossoms will open at Robert J. Moody Demonstration Garden, Yuma, Arizona.
I dream of blossoms
awakening in springtime—
now a chill wind blows.

Watching
Snow will probably never fall on this Phoenix, Arizona yard.
Watching for winter—
how great my disappointment
when I see no snow!

Authenticity
Colorful aspen trees brighten a hillside in California’s Inyo National Forest.
Authenticity:
the aspens do not pretend
to be oaks or pines.

Whispering
Lockett Meadow Campground, Coconino National Forest near Flagstaff, Arizona.
Among the aspens
a whispering of voices—
I am not alone.

Promise
Evening storm clouds may bring moisture to arid lands near Grants, New Mexico.
Autumn afternoon—
clouds drifting from the mountains
seem to promise rain.

Shadowy
Inyo National Forest near Bishop, California.
Autumn afternoon—
I take the shadowy path
without companions.

The Shopper
A shopper returns home after an early-morning visit to the mercado in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México.
From the marketplace
she carries in her basket
daily bread—and light!
