Spring Equinox 2017

it seems the sun slid under the creek ice

mingled with autumn's golden grass and turned the the water shades of apricot gold

yesterday the creek was running water

deep freeze last night

created sacred geometry on the surface

water flowing at the top (of this photo)

 mingling with fingers of ice 

a smaller creek

the expression of ice is so different

bubbles rise from the muddy depths

are frozen in time

for a few hours

it really is lovely to wander the waters edge

a magical realm of

ice and water offering unique formations

~

Happy Spring to you

and

Happy Autumn to the rest of you

Summer's Embrace

water falls

from the top

plus from an inner cave half way down:

dancing waters

mingle with shadow and light

 

along the shore, wild columbines:

Summer fills our days and nights

Sand Light Shadow Sea

 treasures along the sea

water and sand

as artists

traces of who walked by

water reflecting the sky

patterns a bit like a dance

reminds me of a wing

Do You See.... the Fish

light and shadows

shadows and light

summer fish

in high alpine creek

colors and movement

endless dance such a treat

Water Sky

earth beneath

heaven above

igniting our hearts 

while soothing our souls

Icy Pillars Form and Fall

ice 

like diamonds dripping from a ladies hand

drips and forms from natures graceful limb

awesome pillars form and fall

reflections call my eyes 

which are enthralled

nature's grace once again

wins my heart with it's artful show

~

Awesome Sale!

gently lapping waters

along your shore

soothe my thoughts

till they melt away

making room 

for your dancing rythym

and song 

like a slow dance

between lovers

filling all time and space

Golden Waters

 along your autumn shore

even rocks and light

reflect golden hues

an invitation to sit deeply 
open widely

 let this season imbue

The Colors of Rocks Water and Air

our world

our planet

expresses a depth of beauty

that stirs my life

deeply and to the surface

inspires my breath to meet the respiration of life

with vitality

with presence

with appreciation

to inhale the air that rises from these bubbles

to know I breath air stirred by glacial melt

is a gift enormous

air is something we all share 

earth and stones the clay our bodies rise from

rocks our brothers and sisters

care something to be on the surface of our flesh

for to care for our family is essential

~

Spring Equinox, a time of Celebration

 it is the wild dance
between winter and spring
that stirs
and wakens us from our depths

my heart opens to greet a new season
kissing winter farewell
with gratitude for sheltering my spirit
under a cloak of the quiet inner dance

winter
slips away
opening to more light
more shadows
reflections
and dancing waters
stirring life
with Spring's
wakening spirit

Watery Facets

like water
one's path is the way

flowing as a river
creek or rain

held for a time like ice
frost or snow

still like a

pond or lake
 

sometimes a dance
of ocean or sea

perhaps
it is wise to embrace
the watery facets
of one's life

I Am Lake

through you
I am all things
in your depths the world is quiet
I remember
I am silence
along your shore 

waters warm
I remember
I am the heat of the sun
floating on your skin
caressed between your water
and sky
I breathe and I am buoyant
standing
feet buried in your sands
I am rooted
in water languid
in air spirit
when I swim
through your body
I am movement alive
we are
much the same
my body is earth
container of living waters
you flow with and around all you meet
a mutable dance
changing form
liquid ice mist

honoring always the substance of who you are
enduring endlessly through all whom you nurture

Cascade of Water Light and Leaves

dance of light on water
a sensuous delight
absorbed by our sight
adds breath to inner light
enriching our deep waters
