Yearning
Earth’s Moon hanging high /
bright light in the cold night sky /
we, in yearning, try.

Spiderwort
Small, purple petals, /
the Ohio Spiderwort /
weaves through your garden.

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.

Remember me /
By the flowers you don’t know. /
I planted those, too.

Broken
Broken tree shades /
broken lives laid in graves, their /
names in stone and wind.

Oh, my Ditty do /
Unincorporated you /
Passing right on through.
