And
Death and sleep and love. /
One comes, one goes, one remains. /
Legs of a broken stool.

Life
Mushrooms grow on death, /
turning a lifeless tree trunk /
Into life support.

In the wind
Wind muscles the clouds. /
Stripped limbs reflect off windows, /
dancing in the past.

Sky
In the morning sky, /
crows shadow a hawk, squawking, /
harassing, hoping.

Visions
I’m a rodent, you see. /
Not a weatherman, who sees. /
See the difference?

“Please stay off the rocks.”
Water and leaves didn’t listen.
They said, “Unheard of.”

Smudge
Merry Christmas smudged /
over smiles and tears; charting /
its own way through pain.

Rain
We wait on the rain, /
fall and patter of droplets, /
feel and take of time.

Withered bouquet
Withered, the hang. Brown /
cenotaphs of somewhere. Death’s /
sunflower bouquet.
