Yesterday’s rain

Yesterday’s long rain /

lingers on morning glories, /

mingling with today.

Iris

In the lesser light, /

Iris blooming in autumn. /

Slanting toward the sun.

“Three Rivers Market”

Three Rivers Market

Ode to an eggplant,

Locally grown. Daughter holding,

about to take home.

Bloom

The eyes may see them /

but flowers start in the heart /

and bloom in the soul.

“Horses”

Horses

Abandoned horses /

Rusted metal, squeaky wheels /

Corralled for new home.
