song

a tail flick

and the song disappears

little brown bird

fires

last year’s fires

wrapped in my shawl

first cold spell

music

to

the

music

of

my

thoughts

night

walk

right

when right

feels so wrong

euthanasia

letting go

turtle on a log

the sound one makes

letting go

quid pro quo

quid pro quo  the crimson dawn  of insomnia

squabble

saturday rain

a squabble of crows

muddies home plate

news

evening news i return to the frogs

disregard

autumn storm

a hummingbird nest’s

total disregard

breaking

afterward

the sound of crickets

breaking news

mist

shades of grey

ducks down river

in morning mist

together

two old friends

the sounds of

     together

red pepper

a squirrel tries

a different nut

red pepper flakes

sunbeams

i

walk

along

interrupting

sunbeams

fall

morning

old

feathers in the wind  an old duck preens  for no one

tattered

last flower

the butterfly, too

is tattered

scones

autumn morning

shaping sunlight 

into scones

shadow

river rat

the shadow within

an owl’s voice

fluff

cattail fluff

i brush the day

from my hair

leap

two pines

a squirrel’s leap

between seasons

bananas

pressing ‘blend’

i cross my fingers

overripe bananas

heat

a squirrel runs

across the asphalt

heat haze

crickets

sleeping with wind waking with crickets summer love

after

after the storm

the sound of wind

dying in the trees

wherever

border wall

the wherever 

of wild asters

i

tropical wind

orange butterfly

and i

after

storm winds

the everywhere

of after

leap

squirrels leap

between treetops

the morning moon

blue

a quiet sky

a barrel floating

blue together

geese

a pond of geese

on the putting green

tropical storm
