Bloom by Anne Selden Annab

Bloom

Sight
and sound
and touch and taste
awaken bloom
as Spring
is plucked up
by fluffed white clouds
refracting light to spin
into a multitude of brightly
colored threads… patterns
tightly interlaced by
the warp and woof
of nature's busy loom.

Reflections By The Lake by Anne Selden Annab

Reflections By The Lake

An amethyst
dawn geodes
into a crystal

gaze: Clenched
within its tight
sphere,

our winter tree
splinters into
two; shivering

shadows to
reach into rippling
shades of self.

Reflect Winter 2003

Sub Rosa by Anne Selden [Annab]

Sub Rosa

In brief...
a brown eyed leaf
blinked open into
a bright flash
of winged blue

Reflect Winter 2003
