You that prefer, as crows do,
Winter’s chill and the empty limbs,

notice now this that fills
with new leaves and roses opening
and the night bird’s song.

Let your love dissolve also
into this season’s moment,

or when it’s over, you’ll buy
lamp after lamp to find it.

Travel and Return

After finishing the Goodard Residency, I returned to the Island and sat around the kitchen table with friends making art. There's no place like home....(clicking the heels of my ruby slippers).
