daily post – Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

Mountain Peaks

high clouds 
above mountain peaks 
highlighting the snow

this winter sunlight
continuation of life 
flows upon my face

rain upon my skin
underneath the cloud's motion 
red Chinese lantern

joys of coastal life 
the sound of waves in winter 
sparkling sunlight

the cool winter's rain
gently descends upon me
these branches laden

Snowy day

autumnal snowfall 
graceful motion in silence 
stopping soon enough

underneath the rain
leaves glistening like jewels 
as the sunlight fades

as the snow lingers
sunlight hides behind the firs
and western mountains

rippling puddles 
flickering in the streetlight 
a break in the rain

summertime's motion
as petals grow and then fade 
the grace of sunlight
