Poetry: Experiencing nature

(written in 1992)



looking out the window
i see the mist lying on the grass
across the road

let myself be seen through it

I want to be one with the mist
to lay over the fields at night
softening the lights
hiding the sharp edges
but dissipating in day's light

    Where stars
    bow their heads
    in slumber
    I drift off
    contemplating
    mor ning's birth.

    Fog creeps
    around me
    above and beyond

    Comfort as the water falls
    In darkened forest there
    Echoes of an eagle's cry
    True magic in the air
    Morning mists creep softly
