Balancing
From the Blue Book
balancing
on the lake
morning mist 772 and
morning mist
balancing
on the lake
mist
morning balanced
on the lake
morning mist
a secret separates
the lake
winter rain
tomorrows journey
with company 774
day breaks
mist across
the lake 775 and
day break
mist parts
a lake
dawn
mist reveals
the lake
winter wind
moonlight moves rain
from the door 776
wind
winter moon
across the door
sodden fields
birds cry at the rain
stop! stop! 777
shepherd
sheep ignore him
circuitously 778
wood pile
so far away
in the rain 779
sudden squall
man and flowers
bow their heads 780
horse coat
hanging wet
flowers bob 781
morning tea
a clean cup
would do 782
washed in rain
a difference
in summer 783
winter garden
birds worry
the window 784
pale sun
passes the shortcut
to the lake 785 and
sunlight
takes the shortcut
a pale lake
rain
then
dawn 786
winter chill
her cough
through the wall 787
how barren
the day we
plant garlic 789
cold waves
passage of tides
across the sky 791
winter
supermarket without
plums 792
autumn morning
all made soft
by dew
hill mist
joining the sky
the sea
silk dancer
smallest stories
handmade
no escape
the branch's clear edge
of winter
what relief
a road made
just for me
cat
a window divides
winter chill 793
drumming rain
on the rooftop
my old house 794
shorn
of breath
unruly beach 796
narrow road
lodgers walk
apart 799
lily cold
telephone in
the other room 801
cold brought
a clear moon
views me 805
frosty path
a wobbly moon
underfoot 807
winter day
tuis call
across the road 811
