winter
stars
gritting the road
to the hospice

cirrus
cloud
a wisp of sheep’s fleece
on the wire fence

pink oleander
the scent of sunset
sings me into the sound
Joshua St. Claire
the ocean reveals
its colors
dusk waves
Joshua St. Claire
skimming
stone…
our home
in the universe

tell
me your name—
twisty blue
and purple thing
Tony
Williams
Heat wave—
thanking the oaks
that line the street
M. R. Pelletier
Recess—
the schoolyard sparrows
hide
M. R. Pelletier
empty pews
in the old chapel
deadwood
Mark Hendrickson
my road trip with you
rolling down route 66
tumbleweeds

parallel lives
a wormhole
in
the first apple
Robert Witmer
a bird
sipping rain
from
a worn-out shoe

ancient swamp now desert
emerging from dust
dinosaurs

no escape…
a bad dream

after the
longest night
war is over
