I kept every one
our string of hearts that wilted
after you left me

coffee shop window
old couple watches
newer lives rush by

endless life revealed
wet clay shapes itself
on the potter's wheel

ashes to atoms
neutron to quark
karma’s the spark

our war dead–
surfing and barbecuing
forgetting us

leaves on wind
our lives– no need
for self negations

That which does
not kill you
will turn around
and try again.

in your next lifetime
choose to be a cat of mine
you could do much worse

for one afternoon
the small meadow of flowers
surrounds a new grave

birthday coming up
I’m older than some redwoods
younger than some hills

discarding old dolls
pains my daughters– memories
with eyes wide open

a breeze shakes the leaves
and wings away into night
another friend passed

aeons ticking by
on tiny jewels and springs
my life rewinding
