Big

Photo of the shadow of a person standing by the railings at top of a volcanic crater, looking down.

We like a big life
to live on edge looking down
forget we are small.

Try

Photo of a weak sun through the branches of a leafless tree.

Winter’s a tough time
we are all doing our best
even the weak sun

Seek

Photo of a clearing in a park, with tall trees. It’s morning and there’s a clear blue sky and the full moon from the night before.

There is a full moon
somewhere between the tree tops
reward for seekers

Runneth over

Photo of a person holding a mug over their face. The mug has an image of R2D2, the fictional character, and the phrase, Just roll with it.

Mugs have good advice
if only we listened more
life runneth over

Sleepy town

Photo of the full moon at night and the silhouettes of tall trees.

All the world’s asleep
the full moon comes out to play
old trees babysit
