fresh mountain water
on winter feet
stings bright
awakening from the inside
goose's bumps
rise out of grey ashes
shaking off
those flakes
of winter skin
eyes grow green
like the citrusy ends
of pine branches’
young growth
our growth feels young
just as bright and new
as the dappled reflections
across fresh mountain water
at the site the great smoky mountains, tennessee 120mm |
wrapped in afternoon light the great smoky mountains, tennessee 120mm |
shapes in shadow the great smoky mountains, tennessee 120mm |
rest on stone the great smoky mountains, tennessee 120mm |
down by the river the great smoky mountains, tennessee 120mm |
