glory be dappled clouds float over the ridge heralds of coming rain An homage to Gerard Manley Hopkins’ poem Pied Beauty about the wonder of “dappled things” & “all things counter, original, spare, strange.” Also to the mackerel clouds that portend more rain. #poetry #gratitude https://t.co/sVNeNLm51m

sunrise-- twisted juniper salutes day me too, between scrubbing toilets “After the ecstasy, the laundry,” says Buddhist Jack Kornfield. I feel that truth as I clean the ranch’s public toilets at dawn, before most guests are up. #haiku #sacredmundane #ranchlife #wyoming https://t.co/Lq8CJg1bG2

tap tap-tap tap hairy woodpecker percusses tree bark hunting breakfast The woodpecker’s tapping reminded me of Kathy Moore's lyrical & rousing book, Earth’s Wild Music, about the sounds we are losing due to climate change. Save nature's songs, or lose ourselves. #climatechange https://t.co/tfxBBVoe4s
