"Good Morning, World!"

OFF THE TRAIL

The Hawk Portico 1:45pm

I heard a bull frog

a sort of rubber-y note

very sound of bog

ON THE TRAIL

Barrington Passage, NS 12:26pm

I have stepped through

a tunnel of shimmering leaves

calling Me along

by the dappled light

I have breathed in

the hue of fuchsia rose

wild

& heard the lupine

sing out

purple & white
