Little Redwood Valley: The Light was Soft over the Redwood Ridge in Canyon this Morning

Little Redwood Valley


The light was soft
on redwood ridge
in Canyon this morning.

Little puffs of clouds
capped its heights.

The sun rose and
the sun~shadow line
moved down the hill to
reveal green and greener, ~
as well as
the littler valley Tao,
beyond the little,
middle, in-between ridge.

The sun from behind
was strong,
defining the world
this morn.

And the clouds over
the redwood ridge
lingered and kissed
a peak, snuggling with
its tree tops.
