      Dec 19, 2022

      My father and I wade through knee-deep snow in December. Evening rushes into the ravine we climb, half the canyon cloaked in shade. The snow that softened in the sun is already freezing in the forest’s shadow.  Here, 500 feet above the Blackfoot Rive

      The wind in swells through the wild rye rolls.The bright sky dulls. Over the hills,Their green backs ringed with blue-Bells sunset-rung, flaps a wingy shadow west-Ward. A jay. Poor bird that no netMet nor gin it didn’t love. Good luck,You luckless sc

      It’s An Ill Wind…

      Jan 29, 2020

      I don’t mind a bit of wind. Never have. When it’s blowing a gale I’ll quite happily put on a good raincoat and hat and stride out into it with the dogs for a walk. It’s fun and refreshing and does a good job of reminding you of the power of nature. A

      Summer: A Love Story

      Apr 20, 2021

      It is a squalid time. The body grows tired of being a body. Sweat. Always. A thin film of it on the skin. Do not say dewy. Do not say glisten. I dream of endless green. Of wet. Of rain hammering the Earth. Of buds sprouting. I want to insist on life
