Yes, I am a stray. /
Feeding me is encouraged. /
Petting discouraged.

What will we be?
Will the stream live or /
Be a memory dump of things /
When we are gone?

The sign
A sign of the times /
Keep your clothes on is not /
Just an expression.

The colors of stars /
Constellations in bloom /
Heavens underfoot.

Bridge
Feel the foot bridge sway. /
Swollen creek rushes your way. /
Your ears do not stray.

Water bubbles
Upon the Spring petals /
New raindrops run and dangle, /
Nourishing old hopes.

The Greenway
The Greenway awaits /
Your friends and neighbors do, too /
Kindness blooms anew.

We now return you /
To your regularly scheduled lies. /
The stupid returns.

Sweet Heat
Sweet heat of Jesus /
Tastes full-bodied on your tongue /
Psalm to calm it down.

Olympic rings
Golden, deep fat fried, /
Round signs of Spring — Onion rings. /
Olympic pleasure.
