 Consider the crow.
It’s cawing in its own crow way and we listen in our own people way. What do you know, observant crow? I see what you don’t see says he (or she). Scattered grain on the ground below. Listen! Because I am free! The people look up and see the clouds above. Not the puffy clouds of yore but scattered digital tweets of love. (c) 2018 Larry Kilham

Every snowflake is unique
they say. I found you in a sea of flakes. You are unique and beautiful and we float together in a dream. (c) 2018 Larry Kilham The trail leads on.
I follow, searching. Who’s following me? We are alone together. And the children run by chasing a butterfly. When have we arrived? Do the trees know? They all see us but they are mute. And the children run by chasing a butterfly. We stop and talk you and me we and they on the trail where the children run by chasing a butterfly. (c) 2018 Larry Kilham Comfort is the old and familiar
bridging heaven and earth. Comfort is shade and ripe apples, pastel patterns and companions dozing. Here are the old apple trees as the generations of the dead with knurled limbs reaching, trying to tell us something. We look for tender bud newborns - the fruit of those we know - or dead brown in Fall's frost with a new cycle in the offing. The cosmos accommodates these episodes in time - from here we know not how - and there's rebirth in the Spring. (c) 2018 Larry Kilham  As a child on a farm I knew the totality of creation (and in that wonder life had no end). The seasons and the extremes represented all that we knew and all that might be known... Gazing at life in a pond, the dew on a summer meadow, the tundra on a winter beach... We knew life is forever if we are happy to the end. (c) 2017 Larry Kilham |
