Digging a hole
When my brothers and I were young
We decided to dig a hole to China
Should take a couple of weeks at most
Apparently we dug in the wrong spot
We never could find the way
That led to that mythical land

"On Being Far Away, In January:
A Love Letter"
I gift you with these images
Having lived in California
My life seems filled
With Greens Reds and Blues
The colors of life
Today I stepped outside
And saw a hawk circling
Reddish wings
In Blue White Sky
As I watched
It circled close
Watching me
I could feel
The hunger
I stepped into shadow
The Hawk lost interest
Asian Pear trees
Pink buds peeking out
Came back into focus
I gift you with these images
May they warm you
In your Winter White
