Like a Martian moonscape 
Pike’s Peak holds me
light headed and giddy
as we stare down
the Colorado front range
I blink first and must sit
dizzy, breath taken 
by unveiled beauty

Morning Glory

light and shadow
floating mountains
morning glory
on golden fall

We're Good

Goodbye B.C.
Thanks for the rugged beauty.
You'll never be Alberta but as long
as you hold my son well,
we're good.
