Small offering to Dolan Fire



Small offering 

Every breath,
a prayer 
for All
on our beloved ridge -

and for the cool, green forests too

from dirt-bound gophers
to daredevil hawks -
Songbirds of all stripes,
bats, butterflies, the
shimmering, patient koi

Land of sunsets 
and flying saucers —
where the gods 
Dance
with fluid abandon 

and we, 
so very, very blessed,
share in their 
Extravagant 
Joy.
