Disclaimer

This blog ran for more than two years with no graphics--and it received about 50 page views. I was advised to add graphics; after seeing the huge public that followed blogs dedicated to homoerotic images, I decided to use that kind. The result was a dramatically increased number of monthly page views, and the number has remained fairly steady. Most of the images were found on the internet; although they are assumed to be in the public domain, they are identified as far as possible. They are exhibited under the Fair Use protections of United States copyright law: their function is simply to attract readers to the poems--I receive no economic benefit from them or from the blog. Nevertheless, they will be removed if they are copyrighted and the owner so desires. 1260 x 290

WINTER LANDSCAPE



Along the line of low hills there,

Dark pine and oak stripped to winter runes

Glint in the cold as if carved from stone.

 

A flock of black birds scores the air,

Crackling like static, and disappears.

 

In a hoarse whisper the wind dies down.

 

Field and pasture lie brown and bare

Beneath the moons high, soundless soaring.
