Reflection
Images appear /
as I stare at the window. /
All are moment’s past /
carried through time by a light /
empty of your memory.

Remains
Dead sunflower head, /
ashtray for the shells left by those /
feasting on your life.

Flee
I flee from myself, /
the I without the other, /
the other you made.

Know
A field of flowers: /
bright, showy, and all dressed the same. /
Does each know its own?

Seat
Somewhere a seat waits: /
departure or arrival. /
love or loneliness.

Old man
The sun peers over
my shoulder, an old man who
gives heat as advice.

Rebirth
Rescued from the fall, /
sunflowers thrive in the vase. /
Summer storm rebirth.
