The blue ridge parkway
Deserted except for us
The moon and sunset

Bright cool Room is filled with good intention
Blue cushioned folding tables, gauze, warm blood
Brave cheerful chatter and apprehension

Happy place

Happiness is the
Place Where water meets rock and
The Ripples reflect

Snow Day
There were some idiots from PA
Who decided to brave the snow day
Making snow angels in swim suits
Warmed only by hats gloves and boots
This is how snow crazies play.

Mystery and History
_____________________________________
Embrace trees
enchanted
Benign memories
Tangled in branches and
Spanish moss
Awareness permeates
Consciousness
Compels awakening from
Idyllic daydreaming to haunted
Relationship to
Woods
And
Roots
(A found poem inspired by “What Hangs on Trees” by Glenis Redmond and a trip to see the angel oak on John’s Island in South Carolina)

Interlaced
Our lives now entwined like our hands
Different but similar, Forever connected
Showing signs of lives lived and years past
Entangled in creating the future
Natural, strong, gentle and tough
Able to accomplish anything separately
Able to accomplish magic together.
(A free verse poem)
