Colors
Gray is a color /
Painting clouds and earth in light /
Filtered in unknowns.

To be
To be with the clouds, /
Guided by the morning winds, /
Smiling with the sun.

Flapjacks
Flapjacks, rising stack, /
Griddled on an old stove top. /
Winter day sizzle.

Time
Now is elastic, /
Memory stretches then, /
Next shrinks away.

A sip
Some cats sip at bowl.
Some cats are on hot tin roof.
Reflecting on thirst.

The birds
Birds descend to seeds /
Hanging in the winter air. /
Late sun shows mercy.

Let us
Let us ride balloons: /
Up to the heavens and moons. /
Light as grace and stars.

Once again
Cold day for treatment. /
Chemotherapy’s embrace /
In both weather and bones.

Mask
Abandoned or lost /
We will not find our way home /
By failing to care.

Peeking
Peek: sun between clouds, /
Eyes between slats — onto world: /
Seeing and seeming.
