Incense sticks smoke
fragrant
a soft breeze pushes
small floating lamps
pushing flower petals
out of their way
upon the milk stained waters
of the Ganges
chants of mantras echo
over and across
as the sun slips under.

upon a sunny spring day
azure skies above.

I believe
in the unbelievable
a foundation
with footings
anchored upon bedrock
strength
not my own.

Rain spatters the glass
of the windshield on the bus
wet passengers ride.

The fly floats with the current
down the rocky turbulence
to spin through the deceitful
eddy in the current
light rain spots the river’s
smooth surface
hiding the lurking trout beneath.

An empty house waits
for one man and his canine,
a fire in the hearth.

The moon this morning
sat high in the dark spring sky
sentinel of dawn.

Crows call from the woods
inside their church of forest,
pine tree sacristy.

Rain taps the flashing
upon the back porch window
subtle spring music.
