Triptych III - Early Morning Light

 Early morning light

has chased away

the night

and built a path

into the day.

Triptych II - He Reads the Trees

 He reads the trees

as you would read

a book,

but what he sees

at second look

he may not tell.

Still he knows

that in the end,

all is well.

Triptych I - Poet in the Light of Morning Sun

 Poet in the light of morning sun,

his battles have been lost and won,

and now he spends his days

counting the ways of his gratitude

in hero lays

or ragged verse,

or what is worse,

perhaps,

in silence.
