The biggest challenge
Most of us will ever face
Is to simply start
poetry, prose, and photography

The biggest challenge
Most of us will ever face
Is to simply start

Standing in sunlight
Buds changing into blossoms
Spring’s evolution
Sitting in the dark
Reflecting upon this day
Springtime and pollen


This flower’s beauty
Transformative and quite brief
New life comes through change
This world burns with negative energy. Fear, distrust and rage so very of this world. I seek yo mollify that. I wonder if, perhaps, through poems and a bit of compassion, maybe I can help humanity grow its connection to itself. I see that as out species’ path to survival.
May each of you always find beauty and joy in life.

Light and colors dance
Within the digital mind
Silicon children


Springtime manifests
Facing down Seattle’s rain
Soon the blossoms fade
ā
I watch a hummingbird
And wonder about time
Are we only allowed
A specific number
Of heartbeats?
