Rain

His heart falling, /

old man at the corner /

of the sky, crying.

“Moments”

Moments

Today’s sunlight peeks /

around autumn’s bare branches /

and sheds all its warmth.

“Balance”

Balance

Life is a balance /

along a picket fence — /

one step at a time.

“Molten”

Molten

Red, molten morning /

Umber clouds seethe in the sky /

Umbrage at the sun.

Empty, weathered house. /

Time has come and all have left, /

carrying echoes.

Neulasta snapping

Delayed beginning. /

Sinking gap, healing touch. /

Neulasta snapping.

Good eats

I’m nuts about here. /

Sunflower seeds are healthy, /

Help me scatter birds.

“Again”

Again

Again it begins. /

Chemotherapy cocktail. /

“My eyelids sweat,” she said.

“Memory”

Memory

Last night’s rain lingers, /

each drop a short memory /

left on dying leaves.

“Rumples”

Rumples

Rumpled clouds, unmade /

head, autumn morning chirping, /

filled with tousled light.
