  • Glory In The Mountains (Poem)

    It was not petrichor, this scent of rain.

    The path as I walked had previously

    Been dampened by nocturnal showers.

    The trees glinted with moisture,

    And the sodden ground muffled my footsteps.

    No, this was the balm of continued precip

    That joined the falling leaves, the cooling winds,

    And the shortening light

    As messengers all of season’s change.

    Glory in the mountains.

  • Transmutation (Poem)

    I stand in the storm and raise my face to the sky.

    One quick shiver, and I deliquesce.

    Not disappearance but metamorphosis.

    I swirl into the clouds to join the downpour.

    There is rain, and there are tears.

    I fall as both, to water the ground

    And touch your dreams with sorrow.
