Ice-coated spruce branch: watercolor pencil on multimedia paper

ice coats spruce branches
magnifying tiny buds
life hidden within

golden woodland stream
gurgling over submerged rocks
happy stone music

--jmb


 

 


cold spring melt water
reflections, sparkles, shadows
move unimpeded

--jmb



tree with many holes
fine dining for woodpeckers
but fatal for bugs

-jmb


 

spring winds whipping pines,
agitated branches flail 
up, down, round and round

--jmb
scudding clouds in spring
the sun playing hide and seek
while the wind roars

--jmb

 


the sun emerges
shadows appear, green moss glows
sun hides, all things fade

--jmb


 


bright sun peeps, in, out
our shadows come and go
we are, we are not

-jmb



grape vine strangled oak
leaning over the ravine
deep roots cling to life

-jmb


 

up and out early
soft pine needles under foot
crows laughing, springtime
