Black pond
a frog leaps into
the litter of stars
Re: Basho’

rainbow trout
plucking water-striders
to grow itself

wedding Oak
next generation
the kid’s tree house

first-light chorus
the first songs
for the first time

pen pal’s address
checked again
at the post box

office lift
the girl’s first day
over perfumed

cactus
the rain drops
on sharpened needles

the old girl
feeding ducks
in unkempt clothes

as songs
turn to chorus
summer sunrise

the road traffic hums
under the shade of the bridge
lights flash at evening
