Night visitor
Ancient face abounds;
Deep into the night it shines.
See in darkness home.

Branching
The full moon beyond /
Silhouette of winter trees /
Near to quiet Earth.

Dressing
Fog enfolds the world, /
dressing the night’s mysteries /
with forgotten dreams.

Glass sun
The molten glass sun /
Oozes fire along day’s edge. /
Cooling into night.

Morning light
Morning light moves night, /
Shining from kitchen and sky. /
Horizons await.

Friendly light
Friendly light, dangling /
Fire of the holiday night. /
Thankful beginnings.

Morning paint
Day’s palette starts slow, /
Brushes into the moments /
Night has left undone.

Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude
Spent the evening in camarad.
Eating birdseed,
Fists full of greed,
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude,
In raccoon fur they trod.
Into the night
They ate with delight,
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.
Three raccoons in a pod.
Three peas after food,
Including suet crude.
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude
Were too inland to find scrod.
Eventually they left.
When a boom with some heft
Shooed on Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.

The night
Horizon flares red /
Behind clouds smudged dark with night. /
Car travels film noir.

The street
Red lights strip the dark /
Sirens usurp the silence /
Need consumes the street.
