Green buds
emerging grace
sets a welcomed landscape
once again beauty in shadows
in spring

Tidy
sweeping the street
Willows soon to open
Pruned branches grow sturdy and straight
To come

White witch
Lays down evil
Despises all good hearts
Looses her kingdom in the end
Good comes

Stillness
Golden waters
Winter brings a quiet
Gris to grind on another day
Waiting

George Washington by PamelaWLucas
General you led us through Valley Forge to many victories
Energy flourished in your tall frame
One among yourself, standing in glory
Riding on Nelson’s back, you must have been grand
Greatness came and visited you each day, lingering
Every person, man or woman loved to be in your presence
Washington is a name that is known to us all
Among all those who have led us, you remain in our hearts
Such a kind and respectful man who simply wanted to farm
Helping and guiding, directing and leading
In the face of danger you grew strong and never faltered
Nelson was your steady steed, a Chestnut that carried you
Giving of yourself, through sorrow and lonely moments
Teaching the troops how to fight the British
Only one among himself, “The Father of Our Nation”
Never to be forgotten, The Soldier, The Hero, The President
Harvest
Valued ice blocks
Horse and dog play a role
Precious crop for coming summer
Get ice

Moon in repose
Shadows rest on the snow
Full moon spreads light on wintry night
Peaceful
