Iris & Ice
original poster = 30" x 18"

In May, the purple Iris sings in the wind
giving hope to passersby and
connecting with the sun's luminous spirituality.

The world is fresh and every living thing
stands at attention
in the softness of spring.

In May, the Iris reigns queen.


Iris & Ice

  In January, Ice hangs in the air
and storms spill lines of liquid crystal on tree branches
and brown blades of winter grass.
The beauty of the morning after
is experienced within the arch of
a fairy’s fantasy.

We tiptoe through January with care and silent respect.
 

In May, the Ice is here -- hanging in the sky.  We cannot experience Ice until conditions are right.  No doubt, however, that it is here.

 
In January, the Iris is here – a germinating presence. 
We cannot see or feel its underneath energy
No doubt, however, that it is here
 
Season’s Greetings in the glory of this day
the day of an entirely new life
 

born in the balance of this right moment
. . . in the awesome presence of Iris and Ice.
