Young sunflower tries — /
facing winter’s stern shadow — /
to grow and thrive.

Moments
Moment to moment, /
decide or do not decide. /
Faceless choices near.
.

First
First, they take your face. /
Next, your body is product. /
Then, you are no more.

Fortune
Fuzzy bath fortune /
says, “Smile, breathe, and go slowly.” /
Or slip in the tub.

I stand up to you, /

Corner
From a tree at the /

a tinsel heart hangs.
