Oconaluftee's
sparkling mountain waters
sooth eyes, ears and soul

July 18, 2017 - Cherokee, North Carolina

The Winter pond sleeps

iced and still under the guard

of brave birch and pine.

December 25, 2016, Marki, Poland

Fall's first frost speckles

the still-green foliage like

lightly sugared sweets.

Whittier, NC - October 5, 2014

The waning sun's beams
Set aflame the earth below
Soon doused by darkness.
