Rain is deaf to me. /
It hears me not as it clatters /

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.

The Park
Spring strolls through the park. /
Shaking green from her sleeves and /
Color from her eyes.
