gray spring eve

leaving the park bench

for the pigeons

riptide

this poem goes out

to the seagulls

moon-faced

for every phase

another

making up

for lost time

plum blossoms

incessant rain letting the river be

reheated coffee the conversation gone cold

winter wonderland—

painted horses mid-gallop

under silent moonlight

Ron Nhim

Sunday picnic—

grandma knee deep in the lake,

chasing minnows

Ron Nhim

summer stillness—

an old man taps his cane

for amusement

Ron Nhim

an empty desk–

her pink coffee mug

still in the same spot

Ron Nhim

at the burial—

teardrops and raindrops mingle

under the spring sky

spring wind

old man's radio

jazz blown away

Steve Van Allen

a single yellow leaf

floats onto an old blue bench

as it has for years

before the hush of chimes

tea gargled

down in this whirring car

The Little Bighorn

a gentle slope of sagebrush

sand   gravestones    silence

more then than now still weighted

with passing toward forgotten

her nightdress carries

a faint scent still
