Light shadows
Dancing in the wind
Warming in the sun
Sunny figures
Dancing on the
Ground
Shadows disappearing
As the sun
Fades away

Paul Jones
Rain does not fall forever but where it is stopped, there it continues.
Trees will not grow forever but when they die, death is not the end.
Sēma is an ancient word for 'sign'. The poetic form Sēma points to signs of change in nature. Using intuition and imagination, a Sēma's meaning can have a human context. To know nature is to know humanity, for they are one and the same thing.

Iced upon the window
Intricate designs
In diamonds and
Unconnected lines
Frozen in time
Until the warm
Sun appears
And melts the
Magic away
Like fairy dust
Mary Anne Norton Dec 2020
It was an
Awesome sight
Watching all the
Geese
In December song
Honking with glee
Flapping their wings
Chasing each other
Oh the fun
They had
The noise
They made
Suddenly they took
Off
Their gleeful honking
Echoing the air

Please pass the milk
Pass the potatoes
Please pass a napkin
My pen is close
At hand
Mary Anne Norton Dec 2020
Food on a laced cloth
Intricate cover
Spills of gravy
Stains of cranberry
Crumbs of leftover
Pumpkin pie
But amidst it all
The remaining gift
Of laughter
Left to stay
