Garden time
It’s the time of year /
when my garden yearns for rain /
and so do I.

Echoes
Petals dangle: /
shriveled, dull, and empty; /
echoes of summer.

Upended
Even upended /
the sunflower’s tall beauty /
continues to bloom.

building a promise.

Your garden
I pluck the deadheads, /
the day lilies that have died /
and I remember.
