First Poem of the Year

The house sits in a solitary witness
From a desert plain on the valley floor
The casual wind rumors over her rooftop
Forgotten voices overheard
Leaking away through the arroyo veins
The dog laughs with its scribbling tongue

-David Morrison, 2021

About David Morrison

I've lived here at the community with Marsha, my wife, since its founding in 2003. I serve in various ways from pastoral care to landscape maintenance; from coffee brewing to bar keeping.
