rake

a

galaxy

of

fallen

leaves

blackbirds

autumn

a field of cloud shadows

full of blackbirds

too far

moonlit water

a stone’s throw

too far

dream

sketching a dream

before it’s gone

incoming tide

thanksgiving

thanksgiving

a stranger’s baby

bubbles at me

sound

new moon

the colour of

every sound

home

candlelight

in the window

coming home

bottle

pouring sunset

from a beer bottle

the first star

cold

down river

the last light dims

cold autumn night

jump

sunset two fish jumping into the sound

quiver

yesterday’s rain

dawn quivers

on my lashes

white

full of fog

morning flows on

white with sounds

popcorn

empty hallway

i breathe the thought

of someone’s popcorn

open

open window

the cool fall air

i lie down with

heron

for a moment

i am the heron

first light

hurricane

hurricane relief

the ripening of

holly berries

blue

cool blue air

though an open door

autumn evening
