Memory

Last night’s rain lingers, /

each drop a short memory /

left on dying leaves.

Rumples

Rumpled clouds, unmade /

filled with tousled light.

No reservations

Perched along the roof. /

Awaiting seed arrival: /

No reservations.

Cold rain and wind leave /

I hold up the sky!

Silence

The wind rattles limbs /

sweeps the leaves after the rain. /

Ravens stay silent.
