Nightingale Bluebell wood

all night her call
echoes through the bluebell woods -
nightingale

flickering

Songs of Spring - The Isabella Plantation

songs of spring -
redstart and white throat
redpoll and
bullfinch, wood pecker,
sparrow hawk and pintail

The Still Pond Azaleas

this dawn morning
Azaleas spill
into the still pond

layers of grey
concrete and cloud
swallow me

Heather

sprays of heather
white waves
of clotted frost

Heather

beaded heather
flowers white and purple,
a thick tapestry

this evening light
the kind, mild, smile
of the sun

after the rain -
slugs suckling in
musty darkness
