Colorado


I love it so 

but stay away …

the mountains

prairies and streams

 

Each morning

the magic unveiling again

each night

a sky covered in dreams

 

I love it so 

but stay away …

the cry of the wolf

in the snow

 

A warning to transients 

skimming the top

of a landscape

— they’re never to know

 

(Leadville Colorado: March, 2021)
