Spring
as the crocus opens
the sun comes up

What joy!

A flower in the snow

and love for you.


for Valentine's day

As always
a sheep
standing guard
over the valley

Wrapped in a snow blanket

the Stone Buddha sits!

Sunset, cold snow, birds soon to sleep.


Hurrying home with that intertwining of


sadness and gratitude

In memory of Sally Mashader

As it settles

a calmness arises

New Year's morning


Washing done


Ironing to do
