Beauty
Their blossoms fleeting, /
sunflowers live briefly; yet, /
their beauty transcends.

August light
Burnt red sunflower /
hangs its heavy summer head /
in the August light.

Love
Love is the big fish /
that always gets away, but /
leaves tall tales to tell.

Waits
Praying mantis waits, /
perched on dying sunflower. /
Death waits on death’s face.

Dancing
Light and wind and clouds /
dance across roofs while tired eyes /
watch evening step in.

Plays
Time plays with shadows,
with colors, with empty nights,
with hands forgetting.
