A bright winter day,
On the Willamette River,
Teases this year’s spring.

Last moon of the year,
just a few days short of full,
Marks a new fresh start

These mild winter days,
Wispy winter clouds in blue,
Hint at coming spring

A Wintertime hike
In muted noontime sunshine
Filled my sails with wind

The noontime shadows
From winter’s low-angle sun
Split the southward trail

In a garden

The kiss of the sun for pardon,
the song of the birds for mirth.
One is nearer God’s heart in a garden
than anywhere else on Earth.

The clouds above us
Join and separate
The breeze in the courtyard
Leaves and returns
Life is like that
So why not relax
Who can stop us from celebrating.
