Grey pink morning sky
Sea lions barking joy
Graceful Calla Lillies stand
Otherwise the garden sleeps
January 21, 2026 at 4:37 PM
Tulip tree blossoms
Abandoned by a new love
Green growth and chimney view
Still peace and plenty
On a cool morning
January 20, 2026 at 5:26 PM
Grey squirrel greets me
Sea lions sing in the day
Lots of work waiting
I stretch and climb back to bed
Structure and freedom
What a delicate balance
January 19, 2026 at 5:03 PM
Grey squirrel with white right ear
Peeks through the plum tree
Balances the picket fence
Clouds like flocks of sheep
Weather change outside and in
January 18, 2026 at 5:26 PM
Fear is creeping in
Can I travel there?
Am I safe here?
Then waves look smooth and blue
Currents suck my legs
Find a place where we can glide
And wash away fear
January 17, 2026 at 7:20 PM
Old wise man talking
Bonding and the self
The baby and toddler play life
Teachers try shaping
Thinking and understanding
The healing powers
Of earth and within
January 16, 2026 at 5:19 PM
Aloe Vera blossoms
In bright orange cones
Small birds chirp and flutter
Over the house sweeps
a black raven bird
I am ready for the day
January 15, 2026 at 5:16 PM
Breathing cold sunrise
A yellow striped bird
Flies to the redwood
It’s good to be alive here
While others’s worlds are destroyed
Can I help today?
January 14, 2026 at 4:39 PM
Movie scenes in my dreams
Of The Piano
Sliding into turquoise seas
Dragging me with it
Till I cut the cord
January 13, 2026 at 5:13 PM
The heart warms with company
People waving signs
And the beaten friend in pain
Finding joy in a sunset
Beauty in the sky
January 12, 2026 at 5:11 PM
Sharing a hike at sunset
With a friend and alcohol
Celebrating life
Free in a harrowing world
While the cows watch and chew grass
January 11, 2026 at 5:18 PM
Round dark seal eyes gaze
Otters splash and breathe
Friends at the beach for sunset
And then I try help healing
January 10, 2026 at 4:45 PM
Sunshine and Biting cold
Clear the mind when I step out
A small bird searching
For food in the grass
Flutters off because I move
January 9, 2026 at 5:25 PM
Hanging laundry out to dry
With mother in the attic
There was a right and wrong way
Now I’m under the blue sky
Peck them up whatever way
Breaking rules, inventing some
Who needs to pollute
With dryer’s plastic?
January 8, 2026 at 6:07 PM
The garden is quiet, soaked
Large leaves cover succulents
The vine reaches strangling
Birds ate the spinach
And the basil froze
What can I do to keep hope?
January 7, 2026 at 5:44 PM
Slowly rain sneaks in
In through my rain coat
In through shoes, through my pants
Cool wet skin touch rivulets
While I keep walking, breathing,
Smiling at other brave souls
Getting wet jointly
January 6, 2026 at 5:16 PM
Rain walk on the cliff
Then I pee behind a tree
Rainbows touch my heart
With beauty and hope
A virus could stop the world
Let’s halt and turn again
January 5, 2026 at 6:59 PM
A forest river crossing
Wet ground-smell of earth
Mist between tall stems
Walk barefoot on soft needles
While the greedy doom the earth
War- capturing oil
January 4, 2026 at 6:18 PM
Oh year, oh life, oh dear earth
We- the people- are good and bad
Our permeable membranes
Gently protecting
We need to break the rules,
Closeness and distance
People and the earth
To unfold our potential
And to die alone
The smell of bay leaf in the fog
January 2, 2026 at 6:46 PM
Rain, hip pain, peace, espresso
Yesterday’s groupers
A sheep head fish turning male
A one eyed snowy plover
Then floating under the moon
In warm water, friends and cold plunge,
Let the year roll out gently
December 31, 2025 at 6:55 PM
No waves but a wind-whipped sea
I paddle with sea lions
Barking, splashing and jumping
Lively sleek bodies
Slender, streamlined and perfect
Loosing balance - splash
- laughing I climb back
On my board refreshed
Re-set and fully alive
December 30, 2025 at 5:29 PM
Quiet on water
The quiet after the storm
Gently floating tide and wind
Through vast water and green hills
A friend that can hold silence
Sea creatures at rest
The earth at its best
December 28, 2025 at 5:43 PM
The Storm ripped an ornament
From the Christmas tree
Little redwood seeds
Shaped like tiny fighter planes
Leaving rust red stains
Will the earth receive
Or will they compost?
May the growing light
Bring forth new earth consciousness
December 24, 2025 at 7:58 PM
Sun peaks through dark clouds
Days getting longer
I feel the weight of the year
In my body and the world
Let’s shake it up and evolve
December 23, 2025 at 5:27 PM
Peace, friends, water, and drink -
A candle on a grey day -
Large sycamore leaves
Blanket grass and street -
There comes the sweeping machine.
We cover the world
With asphalt - not leaves
