again

the same trail

the same old friend

night again

stranger

public gardens

i pass through the scent

of a stranger

cicada

one cicada

then another

september eve

rush hour

rush hour

our echoes meet

in the stairwell

plastics

coastal flood warning

the reanimation 

of plastics

lonely

one duck

tonight the river

has a lonely voice

deep nowhere

dawn

cinnamon tea

drinking the scent

of dawn

rebuilding

hurricane season

the rhythms of

rebuilding

calm

sunrise

my reflection knows

the river’s calm

until

until the flowers storm damage

squirrel

outside my window in sickness in health the squirrel

whistle

a window

with a whistle in it

autumn wind

wilting

flowers wilting

a four bottle cap

kind of day

bullfrog

wind gusts

a bullfrog croaks

in between

lifetimes

i lose count

of all the lifetimes

hospital windows

either

fence line

the sounds of dawn

on either side 

passing

wavelets

from a passing boat

my bare feet

window

the day begins

at my window

the day ends

bouquet

rainy evening

a bouquet of grey heads

playing cards

remains

heartwood

all that remains

after the fire

voyage

ocean voyage

the hummingbird returns

to my garden

husk

an old man stares

deep into nothing

cicada husk

scorched

dandelions

the sun scorched smell

of a city street

return

river walk

each day i return

to the sky

squabble

new school year

a squabble of crows 

on the playground

bread

Mayfly

Issue 63

Summer 2017

sails

where the river flows into sunset white sails

smile

a child's smile the sound of no shadows

moment

from lotus to sky

a moment's flutter
