Peak Experiences During an Inward Journey

Winter sun filters

through heavy air, softening

harsh landscape outlines.

The lacy pattern

of elm leaves stands out

against the blue sky.

Tiny, perfect flakes

drop through space forming a white

shimmering blanket.

The sun sets, leaving

an indelible image

of coloured clouds.

Rolling hills flow on

into a fugue of mountain ranges

lifting and falling.

Glinting on water

sun shines and doubles itself.

So do ducks and trees.

Your eyes smiling down.

Crocuses in early spring.

Swallows flying high.
