Bending the daylight, /
Shaping the shadows, the bridge /
Spans more than water.

Faces
At the wishing well, /
She made faces, not wishes /
And then they came true.

Sere
Tithonia behold: /
Brown grass crunches with each step. /
Summer’s sere whisper.

The journey
Into the wide world, /
One step begins the unknown /
One heart brings new love.

Asters yellow
Asters yellow blooms. /
A virus on corn flowers. /
No vaccine or masks.

Bee nestled into flower. /
Days work is now done.

Belly scratch ready.

The Tong Dynasty
King Kong and Godzilla met in a kitchen. /
King Kong heard Godzilla wailin’ and bitchin’. /
“My toast! My toast! I can’t get it out. /
“My toast! My toast! It’s stuck in that snout. /
Every time I reach in sparks fly out. /
Angry it is!” He stomped round about. /
King Kong reached forth with bamboo tongs. /
They grabbed that toast like a pair of thongs. /
Godzilla thanked Kong and went on his way. /
Thus, civilization was saved that day.

Window flower
Peeking through the glass, /
Orchid searches for the sun, /
seeking assurance.

Chocolate
At the finish line /
There should be brownies. Always. /
Angels aren’t enough.
