California Koan

 

I lay on that rock

 

feeling the sun on my face

 

as the ponderosa climbed in perspective 

 

I listened to the wind run

 

through its branches

 

a stirring of chance

 

a cone fell to the ground

 

in that moment

 

a beginning

Gorgeous! This piece brought back the memory of the overwhelming scent of ponderosas in the California sun... the blazing summer sky seen through those gently sighing boughs... wonderful wordcrafting, feels like a moment ripe with potential. well done, Robin!

reminds me of when I'm down on the Gulf Coast in Galveston chilling on the beach

this is just gorgeous Robin. I love the reflective quality of these nature inspired poems. A treasure trove of brilliant little jewels for me to savour.

Beautiful - always good to know there is a new beginning.
This is lovely nature poetry. Lying on a warm rock hearing the wind is a peaceful feeling - reading.

I wonder how many people ever notice this, the moments of quiet beginning... they're all around us.

And all that falls, can allow and embrace a new beginning! Love, I think the image of the wind running is fabulous! Breathtaking! xx
