Swatara Creek
the different speeds
of clouds
distant bird
overtaken by the clouds
rushing toward me
how different we are cumulus clouds
cirrostratus night
Arcturus shimmers
beyond the veil
blue dawn moon
the cloud peaks
gull-colored
darksound
earthshine greys
a stratocumulus night
palm blossom
the golden hour mellows
the altocumulus sky
catbriar
lightning between clouds
over the water
calvus cloud
the swift’s motionless wings
propel her skyward
thistlewind
cumulus humilis shatters
and falls to earth.
