wind-sculpted
evergreens bending
but unbroken
we survive even when
our roots are washed away
the peace
that accompanies
forgiveness
after this long drought
an ecstasy of rain
every hill
buttered with celandines
her memories
return with the swallows
but fade at season's end
Welcome to this archive of my published poetry, photography and art. Thank you for allowing me to share my creative passions with you, and for taking the time to visit. Please be kind, and do not copy any of the content on this site without permission and attribution. All rights reserved © Debbie Strange. I unfold my origami self / and swim into a lake of fire / washing my hair in ashes / the crane-legged words / of a thousand burning poems.
