Across the Land

Beyond this tree is another tree

like a desert highway

in the middle of a field

logged in the summertime

running in tandem with the powerlines.

 

Beyond this tree is another story

churning towards the coastline

and another adventure

in another day across this land

Beyond this tree during dawn

the breeze is writing

a love let...

Soon Autumn will be here and on the road again with leaves dangling in...

Summer is Here

The skies has

quickly gone grey

and it looks like

it could burst into

a heavy rain storm

at any given moment.

Summer is here.


Umbrellas are lined up

blown inside out

like the great wa...
