Last Leaves to Fall

Gathered on the bough
Beyond the autumn breeze cold
Winter winds now blow.

Shot Straight Up

Took a shot straight up
Through trees and branches and left
This world for a for a while.

Deep Lake Blues

Appearing through veils
Of autumn leaves midnight to
Morning deep lake blues. 

Walk Around the Pond

Climbed the shadow rungs
Cast across the path and wrung
Out the memories.

Near Crawford Notch

A ragged rocky
Climb up presidental white
Into deep dark blue.

Autumn Afternoon

Tall fall trees catching
The last few rays of day this
Autumn afternoon.

Rope Swing

Swing out, lose grip, float
Into a back flip, drop down
To cold water - Splash.

Not Sure

Not sure where I was
Or what I was thinking but
Want to go back there.

Song of Sirens

As my father swam
To the song of sirens I
Painted by the shore.

The Ragged Edge

In puddles of night
And streams of lesser light the
ragged outer edge.

The White Barn

Above and below
To the right and left painting
Around a white barn.

Oh Oh My

Oh oh my oh oh 
Me got lost in the middle
Of a redbud tree.

Run, Walk, Paint

Love running the trials
To the Great Falls Overlook
This day walked with paints.

Along the Way

Stopped along the path
To gaze upon a tree and
Then went on my way.

The Mountain

Followed the sun up
The shadow side of the mountain
Into the night.

Spring Phoenix

Spring phoenix from the
Gutter flew wide wings lit bright
By the morning light.

The Flood

The incessant drips
The babbling brooks, creeks rise
The raging river.

Awakening

From deep sleep rising
Eye cracked open half shut not
Yet into this day.

Weathering

Sensing the weathering
And shifting tones of the
Internal landscape.

Cigar Box

Scratches, scrapes and blobs
Of paint - puff puff, exhale, smoke.
This old cigar box.

Winter

Closing in on green

Gray and white the wild black winter

Rose grows and grows.

First Memories

How they hold their shape
And the colors never fade
Those first memories.
