Let us
Let us ride balloons: /
Up to the heavens and moons. /
Light as grace and stars.

Gallon grief
Heartache, ice cream takes /
one gallon or two: cone, scoops, /
pain moves — heart to head.

Worry
Do or not do? /
No worry about worry. /
You make it so.

Wish
With you I wish /
to share this last piece of cake — /
but not now.

From many
From many, one drops /
Earthward, away from the sky. /
No seeds in the sun.

Posed
Posed for the decline /
of man, the cat climbs the tree /
after starlings and stars.

Looking
Looking backward /
No one remembers the rain /
Only the hammers.

One of these days
Oh tree, my tree,
Please hide me.
I want to stay
Away today.
I don’t want work
Nor stupid jerks
To come my way.
I want to be
By my little tree
And fill my my days
With poetry.
Oh tree, little tree
Stand by me.
Please, please
Hide me.

Cat dance
Cats in the front yard: /
one leads with a left jab. /
The other rope-a-dopes.

Spring shadow
Frost etches brown leaves /
Clinging to the young oak tree. /
Ice shadows blue spring.
