“Breakfast”

Breakfast

Some bees feast among /

Spring flowers and fruit buds. /

Some feast on cat food.

Flames

Inflame your being, /

swell your foot and make it sting. /

Gout is a mean thing.

Water flower

White Iris pedals /

Folded by the falling Spring /

Rise to catch the rain.

Grieve for no one. /

Stones grieve not for fallen trees, /

but welcome new friends.

Kiss

Deep within spring clouds, /

beauty forms and floats away; /

born of a rain’s kiss.

Falls the April rain. /

Too much or too little rain? /

Buds bloom, regardless, /

make promises to no one. /

Fruits know not your folly.
