More Glow Than Substance









Buddha in sunlight
As peaceful as in the snow.
He's stone, after all.












Tiniest aster
Grows outside near my front door;
Open to the sun.

On the edge of tears
I talk about my summer
And how it touched me.












Bird chirps and shadows
Guide me on this daily walk.
Stream serenades me.

In the old wood pile
A chipmunk has made his home.
Seed puffs wave gently.










In sun's small spot light

A tiny plant stands erect:
Greatest show on earth!

A cluster of leaves
Dissolves into the sunshine;
More glow than substance.












Lying on the ground
Dead log melts into the woods;
A gentle journey.
