My haiku have been published in The Heron's Nest. Other poems have appeared in Riverrun, Writer's Roundtable, Calliope, Quiddity, and Screaming Zebra. I have poems forthcoming in Wild Sweet Notes II: More West Virginia Poetry and In Other Words. I also won the Best Poetry Collection Award in 2002 from West Virginia Writer's, Inc.

mockingbird mimics
blue jays …ah, solitude

sunbeam
ignites cardinal–
vivid flame
Morning’s arrival
snuffing out the stars and moon
Night shift is over.
in and out
of morning mist
wild parrots

dusk –

bleeds sunrays

sun beams
the roof that refuses to hide
our lean years
Fog signls –
unseen the finches
shout from everywhere
blackbird’s silhouette
perched over the satellite dish
dawn’s beginning
