Rest upon the sun. /

Bee nestled into flower. /

Days work is now done.

Ripe

Ripened in the sun /

Hot pepper resting and red /

Summer spiciness.

Back down

Back down to the floor. /

Heart upward toward the ceiling. /

Belly scratch ready.

Bread line

Line up, single file. /

You have to cool off a while. /

A pan handler’s dream.

“Stream”

The stream of color /

the leaves of sound /

the grounding of light /

into the Earth we are bound.
