cloud watching

cloud watching
the reunion
of Pangaea

mosquito

mosquito
and I
blood brothers

hiking trail

hiking trail
my shadow merges
with the oak's

trail's edge

trail's edge
deceiving only ourselves
bunny and I

sego lilies

sego lilies
the trail dissolves
into wildflowers

ceiling fan

ceiling fan
the whir
of my thoughts

this common sabbath

this common sabbath
spokes of sunlight splay
from a nimbus cloud

summer day

summer day
clover bending
with the bee's weight

memorial day

memorial day
a sea of small flags
bearing witness

afterward

afterward
nothing between us
everything between us

lover's quarrel

lover's quarrel
the tea kettle
silenced

summer heat

summer heat
the air you no longer
displace

lingering dusk

lingering dusk
the silence between us
says it all
