By a hidden stream
an old tree guards its secrets—
autumn flows away.

No Tongues

Mission San Xavier del Bac 161
Cacti and a palo verde tree cast shadows in a courtyard of Mission San Xavier del Bac, Tucson, Arizona.
 


Winter afternoon—
they have no tongues, these shadows,
yet their speech is clear.

An old palo verde tree glows at daybreak in the Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona.
 


Midsummer morning—
where is the path to lead me
from this tangled place?
