spring rain

spring rain
the dogwood
half petals, half leaves 

first spring day

buds sprouting
on the fallen tree
first spring day

pussy willow moon

pussy willow moon
he tucks the covers around
my bare shoulders

hunger moon

hunger moon
how bittersweet
this longing

narcissus

narcissus
we are all born
to die

winter song

winter song
the broken horse hair flies
with the music

Announcement

There may be a poetic way of making this announcement, but I haven't found it. Our baby BOY will join our family on 7/25/2012. I am transitioning from morning sickness to ravenousness as I move into the second trimester. He appears healthy, and the genetic tests came back with low risk of defects. Your positive thoughts for us to have a healthy, full-term baby are appreciated!
