New hope
February jonquils, /
early yellow among brown, /
herald spring’s new hope.

Flap Jack
There once was a pancake bed,
Soft as anything said.
I laid down for a nap.
Woke up as a flap,
Filled suddenly with syrup and dread.
Kafka! I cried from my sleep.
He appeared and began to weep.
Then with his fork,
He made his first stroke
And I felt my syrup drip and seep.

Setting sun
Tabby cat sits in /
the setting sun’s amber glow /
and parade of leaves.

Silhouette
Bare limbs silhouette
before a fiery dusk sky.
The sun hies to night.

Touch
Not so long ago, /
morning light saw frosted leaves /
holding winter’s touch.

Alley
Sunlight and shadows /
bare trees and winter dreams /
weave through the alley.

Failure
Is their poetry /
in failure? Bleak winter sun /
pockets its promise.

Play
Light and shadow and
the morning at play beneath
the rising sun.

Practice
Crows chorus close.
Hawk holds to catalpa branch.
Pursuit and patience.

Frost
Dressed in ice,
frost dances at the edge
of abandoned leaves.
