Bagels

Some bagels are fresh. /

Others are moldy compost /

Rescued for repast.

Sun shines through one face. /

In each of us, a thousand. /

Select one and shine.

“The old”

The old

An old cat naps. /

The older sun shines crisply. /

Dreams are never young.

“Open”

Open

Two leaves search for spring. /

Rain falls and searches the leaves. /

New starts and old ways.

“Spring”

Spring

Spring begins gray, /

Bleary eyes crusted with tears, /

Yawning into sun.

“Euphemism”

Euphemism

My stiff third leg /

has no feeling, is never late, /

cares not for fashion.
