Poems written while traveling.

Higher


Dizzied by aspen in the cloud-dappled light,
an appraisal is softly encountered
of the loss that could be delivered.

In bark-eye and quaking leaf, in
a white stand of beauty-surreal,
the secret of astral life descends

in coded secret.  Dizzied by aspen
in the aspen-dappled light, I lean back
in this chairlift and opt to rise still higher.
