Or, like the Andromeda plant, its coat of many colors From stem to branch paint gardensContinue reading “Knowledge of Self – A Poem”

Stones to the Sea – A Poem
Encroaching waves decked in shovel shoes, Build history kingdoms in wet sand dunes. Waves as scoops sculpting stone cornices, Renovate shoreline pillars raising Atlantis.
