This is one of my recent poems in English. I got inspired while walking in my favourite park in Asturias (Spain), where I took this photo.
I SEE YOU
I see you in the wind;
you come silently, . . . more

A Pebble in a Pond
I throw a pebble in a pond,
Counting ripples in its wake,
Contorted image, my reflection,
A forlorn, soul searching face,
Mirrored sky upon the surface,
Infused with gold of summers . . . more

A TREE AND IT'S MUSE
One, solitary tree
Stands alone in the darkness
It's contemplating
If someone will ever stop
And lift it's spirit higher
One, . . . more

Today I'm blue thinking of you
Because you're far away
So I search the sky and heaven on high
And then begin to pray
May your nights be delights . . . more

If there were no sun,
There would be no day.
If there were no water,
There would be no tree.
If there wasn’t air,
We would have no breath.
If there were no moon,
There would be no stars. . . . more

COYOTE'S CALL
Swift across the hillside heights,
snaking pungent chaparral,
above the stars of city lights,
as crescent moon begins to fall,
the coyote's choir hunts the night
for scent's . . . more

Scent of forest fire
moisture drawing down
streams are slowing
berries full
squirrel and chipmunk
agitated
racing, hither, yon.
Scent of forest fire
tinged with hint of orange
spreading eerily . . . more

you come and you go
light fades and darkness draws near

(This is a children's poem of mine that was published by Pacific Press Publishing Company a few years ago):
The sun is shining brightly;
What a sunny day!
The flowers are growing,
The bees . . . more

Raindrops
Abundant gift of nature,
poorly mimicked by
the rarer diamond's glow.

That's the way it sounds to me
My hand dragging in the water
As you bow her violin in key
We laugh and drink Vichy water
My hand dragging in the water
The contrails in the sky
We laugh . . . more

The sun shone brightly during my 15 minute break.
The leaves on the trees fluttered with the wind.
Tall grasses swayed back and forth.
Butterflies danced with the wind.
The crickets . . . more

moonlight dances across
the water, across
your skin as we dance
as one;
flames lick our thirsting bodies
as we burn like embers
and come undone;
shadows dancing,
a ghostly vision
silhouetted against . . . more

The morning air is chilly
and the steam from my coffee rises,
swirling in lovely patterns against the blue sky;
The birds are singing,
and the sun is filtered through the trees;
The air is crisp, . . . more

vivid and true
in kaleidoscope robes
do you envy the hummingbird
his blur?
