1
Round Chemainus Lake,
A trail through dark, green forest,
Still, but for my breath.

2
Sitting in silence.
No books, puzzles, distractions,
Holding emptiness.

3
Raindrops on the roof,
From the eave, a waterfall.
Puddles on the ground.

4
South Okanagan.
Home now after long absence.
My house plants missed me.

5
Deer in the courtyard.
Why aren’t you in the forest?
You’re destroying shrubs!
