goodbye

the long goodbye

of a maple leaf

mountain stream

memorial day

memorial day 

a wood thrush sings

another one down

wild

garden gone wild

tripping over

tomorrow's chore

lilies

Thank you very much, Kuniharu Shimizu :)

ravens

ravens

taking the quiet

from a cloud

wings

my place marked

with ladybug wings

last winter's book

unaware

as if unaware

winter is coming

wildflower

lost

mountains

full of evening

to be lost in

faith

leap of faith 

a rotting bridge

across the bayou

finally

finally

i reach the moon

outbreak

nesting turtles

an outbreak of crows

along the shore 

fog

morning fog

only the duck's cry

passes overhead

heartbeat

just after midnight

sounds become heartbeats

coyote song 

keep

in my keep pile

a purple umbrella

spring cleaning

praise

spring night

the river joins me

in praise of rain

wrinkled

woodpecker

the old woman's face

wrinkled with smiles

bells

chapel bells

follow both of us

passing strangers

tea

first cup of tea

the sun rises

into it

swallows

swallows

the evening stirs

for a moment

again

on my way

the garden stops me

again

chimes

river fog

wooden chimes toll once

somewhere 

what

young crow

what are you saying

behind my back

pause

spring light 

a moment pauses

in my palm

sleep

three am

sleep has left me

a mosquito

yin yang

the yin yang

of our morning path

squirrel and i

unsettle

tranquility

a gust of blackbirds

unsettles things

home

as if back home

mountains of mist rise

over the marsh

ashore

no sound

as it drifts ashore

the last of night

pink

cross country hike

the stopping power

of pink

fledgling

soft spring air

the chatter of fledglings

learning to fly

empty

running home

an empty mind

full of jasmine

crickets

first of may

finally it comes

to crickets
