Oh Potted Plant
August 25, 2021
Oh potted plant facing the sun, I hope to see where you grow yourself. Will you fill the space that has been given, With roots dive down to seek succor. How will your leaves unfurl, And blossoms arise? However you may do this, Whatever your process may be. I will joyfully watch your progression, And … More Oh Potted Plant

Summer Bee
August 18, 2021
Busy as one can see, Gliding between rays of light. Constant motion giving way to a dive, Leaping into a well of nectar. Dusted upon from wingtip to antennae, You trace a half lazy path back home. -M.E. InkOwl
Chalice of Green
August 11, 2021
Chalice of green placed in the sun, To guard all who may enter this space. With lions mane and earthly growth, Bid all to seek wisdom and nourishment. Remind us of what is always possible, Under the light of each day and starry night. Let brass upon this corner sing, As steps take us wandering … More Chalice of Green
Hidden Paradise
August 8, 2021
Herein we find ourselves, Upon a broken ridge of baked clay. What wastes lie behind our worn soles, Each rock and dried root has been memorized. But now between two sloping mountainsides, Is a slice of what could only be paradise. Running water drips to fill a mind with madness, And from this rushing water … More Hidden Paradise

Call upon the wisdom of nature, Once living but now has passed. Within hardened resin and bleached bark, Lines the understanding script of time. Young are we dwelling upon this rock, And timeless are these hills upon a mount. We would do well to remember our years, And lie upon this path to learn. With … More Wisdom of Ages
Crumbling Doldrums
July 23, 2021
We stand upon cracked soil, Baked clean of any water. Like our tongue caked with dust, We speak without sound. As wind pushes out all color, So the world becomes but shadow and rock. Our eyes lift skyward but in vain, A blank wash of what was blue, Unravels to a dull gray. Now we … More Crumbling Doldrums
Cerulean Sky
July 21, 2021
I wonder what is actually happening, Above our secrets so green. A cerulean jewel lies just out of reach, Wrapped on all sides by these leaves. We look up upon its deepest parts, And seldom take things in. Oh the scattering of white swirls can confound us, But what can we really comprehend with our … More Cerulean Sky
Owl Secrets
July 19, 2021
Upon a perch are you found, Above acres of growing things. With fierce eyes and plumage thus hidden, Watching all that occurs in your land. Even as sun burns white hot, You bide your time and wait. For what only you can say, As you alone can see all. Now quick as shadows must we … More Owl Secrets
