Traveling

 

On my drive this morning, 

I passed a family of sandhills cranes 

congregating at the side of the road. 

 

A bald eagle soared high above

and a hawk flew straight and low. 

 

A group of turkey vultures spiraled 

above a stand of trees.

 

Alone in my car rushing down

asphalt highways, I marveled

at nature in action.

mist

 She sashays to

a waltz wafting on

the western wind

       

     Across moonlit marsh

above placid pond

over roiling river

 

She dances past dawn

softening the sunrise and

hushing the waking world
