Swing Low

Up before sunrise

reading on a porch swing post-dawn

Over, under, sideways, down

Figmentation

Blue skies, bright sunlight

Not a real cloud to be seen

Just Moon’s smudged thumbprint

Vortex

Brittle, sparkling cold

Ice of eaves, and hoarfrost trees

Polar winter’s come

Pussywillows, Cattails

Grey, green, brown stalks sway

Fresh growth or dried in the wind

Prairie, verge, or marsh

By the River

Bowing in the wind

Cracked Earth beneath storm-fraught skies

Lightning fashions grace

Hob

Chimneys, curling smoke

Venting the households’ dark ghosts

Leaving warmth behind

Cardinal Currents

Dancing on the wind

Aloft, flitting, dip and spin

Bright carmine treetops

Labyrinth

  

Straight lines, turnbacks, coils

Feet, eyes, hearts concentrating

Walking spirits' path.
