Poem Category: Miscellaneous

Last puppy sold
their birth blankets burning
one by one.

Grandmother’s gift
the brooch clasp
losing its gold.

Spring winds
finding odd tunes to play
over the barbed wire fences.

Street cafe’
a newspaper wind
bending at the corner.

Waterfront cafe’
drawing to the horizon
both full moons.

Spider
only the male suitor
understanding her web.

Dance auditions
from the dark seats a thank-you
just that once.

Sea-front cafe’
waiting for friends
two moons approach.

Zen garden
turn after turn silence
of the green water-wheel.

School picnic
our walk downhill
to join the games of the others.
