Sunset Trail 11/11/96

I bet you've never

stood in the snow

and listened to

the coyotes

I bet you've never

walked up a winding 

trail in a snowstorm

I bet you haven't

And I'm probably

right

Hidden Canyon w Don & Linda G. May 31, 1996

Where are you my

dearest one?

Beyond the clouds and the

sun

I call you but you

didn't come

I searched the

ground and the

sky

I looked this way

and that way

I needed a place to

think

so I found myself

in Hidden Canyon

And there I found my

dearest one

Beyond the clouds

and the sun.

Angel's Landing w Don & Linda G. May 30, 1996

The place where angels

land

And the sun rests its

Fingers upon

Climbing upward

Slipping downward

Heaven above

And the ground below

I saw an angel there

last night

So I called Angel's Landing

Kaibab Trail 4/27/96

Loud and aggressive

the mule is

Quiet and passive

the mule deer is

I'll carry you up and

down the canyon each

day.

I'll let you take my

picture

and then be on my

way

I'll stomp you to bits

I'll just run away

Loud and aggressive

the mule is.

Quiet and passive

the mule deer is.
