Matanuska Glacier, Alaska
Upper Yosemite Fall, Yosemite National Park
Fields of white
Glist'ning bright,
Building mounds,
Muffling sounds.
Godhead shows,
In repose,
Nature's mesh:
Sharp and fresh.
Ice capped stream
Makes the dream.
By His urge
Seasons merge
And
Drops of melt,
Hardly felt,
Clean and clear
Branch and bier.
Warmed by day,
Droplets play.
Water's rush
Ends the hush;
Nature's room
Comes to bloom.
Mt. Conness from Young Lakes, Yosemite National Park
Storm, Pacific Grove, CA
By His urge
Seasons merge
To
Fields of green.
Morning's sheen
Flowered bright
In the light;
Laughing breeze
Shakes the trees.
Granite shine
Brings a fine
Evening show:
Alpenglow.
By His urge
Seasons merge
To
Skies of gray,
Dimming day.
Lightning crack
Splits the black;
Lonely moan
Chills the stone;
Icy streaks
Lace the creeks;
Snowfall's crush
Brings the hush.
