I took the dragon
by the tail held onto it
my compass
circle after circle in sand
it
drew me inward

I let
the memory
heal

office

the ascending aroma
from the alley bakery

long
night
the lonely baying
of a stray dog

March
wind
a drifting leaf settles
on my shoulder

ancestral
well
remembering
my foremothers

no water lilies
but rock reflections
in the winter pond
I look for beauty
in
the cold and gray

a
stone Buddha
on the garden path
reminds me
it was
many years ago
I last lit incense
Jackie Chou
two blue-tailed birds
hopping in and out
of a fallen tree
all the things I cannot name
on
my midday walk
Jackie Chou
the sky tonight
bereft of the moon
and stars...
I write a love poem
about
airplanes

Did I waste myself on excess,
Wanting too much
Until
it became too little?
Anthony Ward
To see the moon and hear the loon
Is
to feel what night is made of
Anthony Ward
Leaves
dance to the rhythm of the rain

above or below
i will always be here when
wildflowers
return
Noga Shemer
how many, he asks
infinite, is her answer
azalea
petals
Noga Shemer
leave the door open
so I may hear you trying
not
to disturb me
Noga Shemer
i worry for you
but you've been through this before
daffodils
in snow
