2618

even some beauty
in my phone’s close-up
the crow staring back

2617

in the blackened hailstorm
we can only watch
the dinting of cars

2616

winds of hail
the kitchen window
pinging with stones

2615

easy to add more
to my charcoal sketch
the soundless gulls

2614

a school boy fishing
his get-lost kiss
to the train on the bridge

2613

garden Buddha
the snow painting morning
behind the curtain’s lace

2612

our talk over blackberries
across the table
her sweet purple lips

2611

being fog
the cloak around the reeds
slides softly to the pond

2610

patio coffee
my Alsatain asleep
in the gold of dawn

2609

just parts
from our birding cat
the fresh mown lawn
