Spring equinox

The song thrush

shouts his delight

at the lengthening days.

The absence of fairy lights

reveals the gloom of January.

Let’s make our own light.

Mountaintops glow orange.

Dawn reflecting

on November snow.

Evening practice.

Ten mindful breaths

beneath the stars.

I am breathing in the cold night air

as goose calls drift up from the estuary.

We share the same moonlight.

Treasure

set free

from the pages of an old notebook.

Egrets

Unexpected flashes of white

Egrets flapping homewards

across clouds full of rain

Tai chi in the garden

Finding peace

in the space between
