Iris

In the lesser light, /

Iris blooming in autumn. /

Slanting toward the sun.

Bloom

The eyes may see them /

but flowers start in the heart /

and bloom in the soul.

“Eyes”

Eyes

Eyes green as tree leaves /

Black as yesterday’s midnight /

Cat’s summer swings slow.

“Myths aren’t true”

Myths aren’t true

Some say myths aren’t true.

A flower does not know this and

blooms its own story.

America is…

a found cat resting /

beneath sun and sunflower /

Bowl of clouds

The bowl of the sky, /

Nourishing heaven and earth, /

Overflows with clouds.
