Yearning
Earth’s Moon hanging high /
bright light in the cold night sky /
we, in yearning, try.

Spiderwort
Small, purple petals, /
the Ohio Spiderwort /
weaves through your garden.

Photo finish Friday: “Hearing”
Hearing
Rain is deaf to me. /
It hears me not as it clatters /
against your rose.
Haiku to you Thursday: “Home”
Home
Home is on our backs: /
carried and carrying, /
burden and promise.

Hope for the creek
The Hail Mary here /
Is neither pass nor prayer /
But hope for the creek.

Purple Iris
Petals up and down /
Shining in the sun’s pleasure /
Bright beard on curled tongue.
