Red Rock Canyons Fill
With Light and Shadows Rise to
Move Across the Rocks

As The Day Passes
Canyon Walls Stand, Canvas for
Always Shifting Light

And Something Stirs in
The Shadows or the Light on
The Rocks or In Me

Molten Sunlight Pours
Down Canyon Walls and Flows Out
Across Dry Stream Beds

Molten Sunlight Caught
In Utah Alabaster
And Prairie Flower

Molten Sunlight Cooled
By Sapphire Skies, By Time, and
Laid in Sheared Rock Walls

Capitol Reef Cliff Face Slushed in Oranges

Layer on Layer
Laid Down Over Time Beyond
Our Clocks and Measures

Worn Away By Wind
And Water, Canyons Painted
Orange and Grey and Green

Steeped in Light and Dark
Time and Distance Are Dissolved
To an Ancient Calm

Bryce Canyon Flooded in Sunlight

A Light of Kindness
Flickers Into Darkness And
I Can’t Catch My Breath

This Light Not Tended
But Not Forgotten, A Piece
Of My Foundations

Breathe I Tell Myself
Breathe. How Can This Hole Exist?
How Do I Go On?

Breathe I Tell Myself
And All at Once, I Recall
All The Bright Moments

And I Know This Light
Of Kindness Will Burn On, A Bright
And Eternal Flame

Stone Wall Etched in Light,
Snow and Shadow Psalms Stillness
Across the Hill’s Crest
