Old cat
The old, stray cat sleeps
on the dry September grass.
Brittle leaves and dreams.

Stray
Old black and white cat,
stray as the descending sun,
pauses for a meal.

Godot
Common lantana /
and stray cat wait … but /
but not for each other.

Late arrival
A stray day lily /
Yellow in the August heat /
Fashionably late.

Bridge
Feel the foot bridge sway. /
Swollen creek rushes your way. /
Your ears do not stray.
