reflections

reflections,

revealing,

see the ghosts of white,

hiding in among the trees.

Horse

horse and rider,

with a little imagination,

easily seen,

except for the worldly,

then only a haze of color.

creature

a creature,

quite large in size,

the head on the left,

the tail on the right.

Trees by the Pond

Trees by the Pond,

sentinels,

protecting the pond,

from the hills of sand,

isolated and surrounded,

it seems a suicide mission.

Flowers in the Weeds

Flowers in the weeds,

fighting for life,

life once beautiful,

now,

only a fight for survival.

centered

centered

the page filled from the center out,

the painting balanced,

both in color,

and in line.

Blue Creek

Blue Creek

in spring,

blue creek,

a place of legend,

and of childhood memories.
