Connections

Lake, Frozen, Ice, Water, Winter, Frost

Today - I took  a walk
connecting with nature
winter-air, cold and crisp
tracking my steps up and down
gentle sloping hills

Today - I wondered where
the geese have gone
yesterday, they flew in
V-formation seeking
a place to land, frozen
waters, a change of plans

Today  - I watched a flying man
on razor sharp blades, grinding
ice with each hissing bite
waiting for the stick and puck
to meet, Tap, tap, tap

CRAACK, SWOOSH

there's a connection
that echoes out into the universe

Today -  A cooper's hawk flew
overhead
there's synchronicity in nature
connect, focus, visualize
obtain your goal, fly with the wind

CRAACK, SWOOSH

Author's note:  Today, I went for a
walk trying to connect with nature.
There was a man playing hockey
and I thought how free he looked
flying across the ice with ease.
