From walk of September 13, 2015
Shadow of a man
Standing in the field next door?
(It's just a tree trunk.)
Standing in the field next door?
(It's just a tree trunk.)
All is wetness now;
The greens are very subdued.
Rain is a presence.
The greens are very subdued.
Rain is a presence.
Roaring past my house
The sleeping stream is awake.
Crows call from tree tops.
The sleeping stream is awake.
Crows call from tree tops.
Ponds in the front lawn;
Swamps by the side of the road.
Water victory.
Swamps by the side of the road.
Water victory.
Soft blanket of gray
Lies suspended in the sky;
Small silent drops fall.
Lies suspended in the sky;
Small silent drops fall.
Hanging from tree limbs,
Perched on the leaves of bushes--
Ubiquitous drops.
Perched on the leaves of bushes--
Ubiquitous drops.
Beacon in the gloom;
Amber light from inside house---
Lonely floor lamp shines.
Amber light from inside house---
Lonely floor lamp shines.
On the road ahead
Sun shards fall on the pavement
And then melt away.
Sun shards fall on the pavement
And then melt away.
