abundance

a word,

abundance,

is clanging around in my head.

 i suppose i will look 

 and see why

i suppose it's a point of view.

i suppose it's connected to gratitude.

 it's everywhere.

winter has finally appeared 

with ice and snow and slippery roads.

abundance. 

 our beautiful earth

abundant in the ways we need.

if we are willing

to do the work

we will share in this

i am thinking about this word

abundance.

abundance

 this is what i saw at 6:45 
on my way to work. 

i tootled along

and then i pulled over
couldn't help it

 i turned around and went back

 pulled out the camera 

and got out

 the geese were honking away

 i disturbed them

it seems

 i kept looking and shooting

 then four took off

 the color was shot with early light

and the red maples showing their true colors
