Autumn Listening
Autumn wears a descending dress
Pine wind so elegant
Blazing leaves within clear bottles of wine
Campfire a spring laughing over all history
And just out of the dancing light’s hands
Black bears who spent late summer cracking branches
Keep their noses in the air
And listen
To the human song
- John Rock 2016
Walking Poem
Old abandoned beaver pond
all the aspens eaten
and built with
years ago
Yet beneath the ice
a vibrant colony
of
cloud
