end of a long drive
the cool of the sea
around my ankles
Month: June 2024
storm alert –
the sound of banana fronds
slapping
tornado siren
a black nose pressed
between barnboards
morning rain
the bronc rider cradles
his broken arm
a green lacewing
on the torn screen window
stormlight
flying west
the sun sets and sets
ahead of a storm
refugees everywhere . . .
lone planets wander
without a sun
scattered
where she wanted
summer stars
holding hands
his tremor
becomes hers
misting flowers
my late father
in Street View
first blossom
to droop
birthday bouquet
as old as I
the mirror
desilvering
revealing
my true age
hotel mirror
year of the dragon
some fire still remains
in my belly

sun-striped path
the forest’s outbreath
fills our lungs
(haiga)
mead moon
tracing his highland clan
to a field of rubble
beachcombing
within the sand dollar
a lost city
returning them
for more polish
skipping stones
monarchs returning to pure instinct
Summer romance
a firefly flashes
its green light
