Kind mentor passes –

As wise as the oldest hills ~

Still learning from him.

Television on –

Dinosaur finds in the news ~

Find myself smiling.

All the animals –

Infinite variety ~

Tiny fraction known.

Looking at a rock –

One cannot just think ‘a rock’ ~

Geology brain.

Waves on a Wednesday-

I sit on a pile of rocks ~

Made in older seas.

Carry on woodlouse –

As you have long before us ~

And will after us.

Rocks are making rocks –

On the beach, in the river ~

Deep beneath your feet.

Punctuated Equilibrium

We are all shut down –

Nagging feeling about this ~

Nature is smiling.

Traveler

Devonian stream –

Fish choc a bloc, tail to head ~

Ack, had I a rod.

Instruction

A marble fireplace –

Anastomosing patterns ~

Long since understood.

(For Dave Johnston, a great teacher)
