between us
a screen of branches
where flirting once grew
Month: April 2019
2349r
never leave the house
watch birds— no wonder my cats
think me one of them
2348
thousands of wings
spin around a white steeple
blend with the night sky
2347
a swirl of blue jays
or an upward gust of leaves
need to wear glasses
2346
flashing lights, sirens
winds along the winding street
the birds keep singing
2345r
unzip this moment
sort out the karmic small change
get rid of grudges
2344
package deal of spring
mosquitos making their home
under the blossoms
2343
days become warmer
below melodies of birds
a horse fly’s bass note
2342
glyphs of colored chalk
washed away by garden hose
inscrutable scrawls
2341
back to school day
peace returns to the cottage
cats out of hiding
2340
easter morning
colored eggs
garden Buddha’s lap
2339
at the hookah shop
elderly people dealing
rollingstone tickets
2338
learning what I haven’t
toddler bumping into things
Life’s not all jello
2337
neglected yard hose
all knotted and entangled
chokes off the pure force
2336
what if zombies
sipped tea and wrote poetry
they won’t be so bad
2335
meeting white-tailed bucks
my cat rises on hind legs
just to show who’s boss
2334
it’s such a pity
to change with the seasons
cats don’t have wardrobes
2333r
cleansed by the rain
each grass, bloom, and leaf
prisms of spring light
2332
a songbird morning—
three blasts of a steel whistle
from my aunt’s bathroom
2331r
colored eggs
from last Easter
still in hiding
