growth feels young

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
