Poems and Thoughts    by Frank Maurer

At Dusk by my Table. Sitting at dusk by my table, Watching White-crowned Sparrows on the outside feeder. Bundles of narcissus--all colors clumped together. A carving of an abstract eagle, Carved in Norway with my travelling two year old son. A CD sent from Sweden--one of Ingegerd's daughter's singing. An Asian Elephant statue in gold--at least the color-- Acquired at a flea market, accompanied by my lovely dog, Sophia. A hand carved stone petroglyph of Kokopelli, Created in Colorado, in October 1999, While attending a Land Trust Alliance Rally With snow flurries surrounding us all. I have been to so many places and seen so much. Comforting thoughts of my past, just sitting next to me.
