rust,lichen and the black dog



decades ago a man taught me to use my eyes
nature never disappoints
trees stand like rusting iron
posturing at times like dancers
lichen hangs tight curling in the wood scented air
musty with pine and mud
while a black dogs nose works over time
the birds have lots to discuss
