Green Wings

Dark grey butterflies
Fluttering through my window
Are shadows of leaves


Winter Storm

Dark like full moon nights
Gleaming in shimmering white
Shaking in the cold


City Street

Silence is shattered
When screaming city awakes
From dreams of hushed peace


Lovers

Trees reach over road
Leaning toward their beloved
Leaves growing closer


The End of a Drought

Showers of rain fall
Tracing shadows in the sand
Like trees in winter
