Weatherford Trail June 28, 1998

 That log would
 be perfect!
Oh, and that one
As I walk along
I dream of a 
horse under my
legs.
I dream of cantering
up the trail
Of jumping logs.
Of a mane in my 
face and reins in
my hands.
Of the wind whipping
in my face.
Oh, I dream of 
horses.

Grandview Trail May 29,1998

 Hop over a rock,
scramble down
a log.  That is the
way of the Grandview 
Trail.  Yet it lives
 up to its name
with a view so
Grand!  The 
Grandview Trail.

Beaver Creek (Haiku) 2/10/88


Horses and cars go
By our picnic spot, a dog
Interrupts our lunch.

Long Canyon 3/9/98

I am the king
the king up above
I sit on my
perch in the sky
Below me, I see all
Above me, I see sky
My land, the trees
below
My home, on top
 of the world
People come to
invade my kingdom
Below me they
walk
The soon disappear
To where did they
go?
Lost in my kingdom
they are.
