gnarly cottonwoods
branches stretch to leaves in white
monochrome delight
One-Room Schoolhouse 1907
swaying moss-draped trees
the distant cries of seagulls
one-room schoolhouse stands
Twilight’s Embrace
in purple-pink hues
sunset’s brush of brilliance glows
embracing twilight
One Among None
one great egret stands
among a crowd of wee birds
peering marsh water
Wild Iris
its graceful presence
arrives in morning twilight
life as a flower
