Elemental

Gulp gulp gulp gulp it

We gotta get and gulp it

Pull the plug and gulp

Adapt

Harmony is peace

Push and pull twixt parts is peace

Live, and invite peace

Patience

Poised to wait calmly

Still grasping the parent tree

Almost time, almost

Terrapin

Swimmer prefers land

When glazed hang it on my wall

Algonquin nature

Dark Down

Too heavy to lift

Fear adds weight to this portal

Be safe, do not go

Choice

My body can feel

My mind knows best what I need

My heart makes the choice

Carpenter

Skilled builder with wood

Poet of beams and trusses

Pockets full of screws

Blush

Morning stunner hue

New chroma surprise bloomer

Last evening’s secret

Walls I Build

Earth rumbles and moves

Thought solid cracks and loosens

Change requires force

Rusty coat

I have not practiced

I am faithful for purpose

No longer chosen
