Up the Mtn, Again! #233

ah! blue moon

woodstove heat ... last August nite

Up the Mtn

Up the Mtn #81, "Nature"

Transcending Isms

Where divinity resides

calm   still    solitude

Up the Mtn, Again! #225

mountain moonlight

pouring through a treetopped sieve

bough strained moonbeams

Up the Mtn, Again! #234

sounds of snowfall

cascading yellows shimmer

droughted needles fall

Up the Mtn, Again! #235

wandering ... alone

seeking companionship

in solitude

Up the Mtn, Again! #227

-40F

I know warmth awaits me

beyond this numbness

whether indoors by the fire

or sitting by this tree ... 

Up the Mtn, Again! #232

Up n' down   ...    up n' Down

about the dark hillside ... the wabbbit

till cruncH!   goes the (spotted) Owl

Up the Mtn, Again! #197

three Sisters (wilderness area)

summered    almost bald of snow

climate change?

Up the Mtn, Again! #153

foliage falling

till boughs bud again

on and on ... and on

Up the Mtn, Again #231b

my skin set aglow

(by) ethereal ephemera

summered moonbeams

Up the Mountain, Again! #198

forest heat wave

foliage, drying   ...   dry   ...   dried

summered sun reigns

Up the Mtn, Again! #224

premature colouring

ferns pines, yellowed browned ... fall

droughts foliage

Up the Mtn, Again! #218

my summers long gone

I cry out cold dry tears

my last winters here

Up the Mtn, Again! #187

Up the Mountain

solitary seclusion

(autumn) blossoming

in my mtn side hovel

stoking the fire

Up the Mtn, Again! #224

after the rains

a cool moist evening ground fog

swelling summer breeze

Up the Mtn, Again! #216

Old growth 

refusing to bend

in any direction

Up the Mountain, Again! #219

my time

secluded on a mtn side

summer hermitage

Up the Mtn, Again! #229

reading haiku

through silhouetted branches

dancing on pages

Up the Mtn, Again! #215

My journey's       my home

time, love, my fellow travelers

a wanderous life

Up the Mtn, Again! #205

Saigyo's creek spilling

into Basho's pond, Buson's paintings

flakes, blossoming in me

Up the Mtn, Again! #202

canopied treetops

sunset paints with light n' shadows

dusk is simmering

Up the Mtn, Again! #158

a faint humid haze

fireflys       ah!     summertime

gnats clouding my view

Up the Mtn, Again! #201

beaming loudly

my eyes hear the sunrise dawning

white clouds on blue sky

Up the Mtn, Again! #203

gesso

aging flakes

cherry blossoms

Up the Mtn, again! #200

screened sunrise

sunbeams sketched on pages

writing through shadows

Up the Mtn, Again! #194

sinking cinders

ash flakes float downstream

wild land forest fire
