foggy dawn

the milk froth

in my first coffee

pick-up points . . .

the sledge of Santa

lighter and lighter

Christmas parties

please everyone remember

jasmine scented

autumn breeze

rustles the hibiscus —

yet my heart is uneasy

thinking about tomorrow

j rap

hundredth time

I’ve walked this path ...

still learning the shadows

the busboy drags

a trash bin to the curb

spring moon

autumn dusk

thump of trucks

on the highway bridge

sunset sky

brushstrokes

of peach and lemon

cloudy beach day

a coming out party

for the son
