reflecting on the waters

water bird reflects
near the shore of the pond where
nothing is forever

imperfect people at the park

imperfect people
walk through tangled weeds and brush
nature says okay

the pond knows no politics

the water is close
the grass is under my feet
talk is far away

acceptance & imperfection

asked his religion
he witnessed for acceptance
and imperfection

lost female Wood Duck

misses migration formation

now "woman alone"

September early & late

fall will never come
and then it arrives early
on the wings of geese

heading off an argument

Cormac McCarthy:
I don't aim to get in a
discussion about that.
