spring
springtails circle
withering stalks of mint
– trees dance the Wind
humid dew
skin feels all pains
deeply, in air
weeks with many endings
different shadows now
old poems
one slow one
on the nose
two women, sneezing
squirrel traipsing on wire
greeting mosquitoes
summer
towering above
overtaking all observed
rushing to the end
never-ending flow
the earth’s cold grasp, below
ready for the end
warring wasps
finding a way back
a poisoned home
incarcerated house
forsaken daughter wages
god’s return, in Time
slow day
beneath strong wind
restless peace
soft twilight
moisture in my breath
chirp, chirp, hidden
curious cardinal
upon on leafy bough
hovering to ground
invert wooden corner
spider webs a wee ant
in mosquito humidity
age unknown
beneath my feet
a Spanish cypress
wade out
stumbling on sand dip
beneath the break
moment of sadness,
the problem-solving teacher
waxing wasp’s nest
vapor bombards skin :
trio of house sparrows
resilient, wooden
soft strummed tones
fossilized paws beneath
my feet, a springs
scent of the pine
twilight sways with wind
cresting a rocky giant
crickets at my feet
flutters the bush warbler
– a piny refuge
