dark city skyline
back lit by blue morning light
and rose colored clouds
nothing to warn visitors
city under quarantine

2020.03.17: silver lining
unprecedented
working from home and finding
joy through the window
leaves and flowers budding
birds singing and finding mates
2020.03.08: transfigured
on the mountain top
face to face with Creation
to see and be seen
how insignificant one is –
separated from the Whole
2020.02.20: unnatural
air that won’t fill space
water that won’t flow downhill
hearts that never love
living for others is love
dying to oneself is life
2020.02.09: disciples of a lesser god
salt without flavor
lamps under bushel baskets
Light hidden away
is it any wonder then
the growing number of none’s
Longing For Water
