Poem Category: Miscellaneous

In the scheme of things
great shading trees know their worth
to breathe out man’s breath.

bridge night
the weight of my partner’s
losing score.

waiting room
a book of haiku
beside poems that rhyme.

in chalk dust
the weight-lifter just holding
the seconds.

fire fly lights
dots on the lake
at the foot of stars.

spring breezes
bees to the apple
blossoms again.

Deep waters
a mirror of the moon
I row across.

What the tea leaves tell
three months after
the last affair.

tis ever so!
the cat must play and play
with its injured bird.

Pencilled
heights of the children
behind the laundry door.
