my sweet peas
bloom on the widow’s side
where they’re needed
Thoughts
So Little
time like a shadow
touches me in its passage
leaving so little
Cherries
cherries glisten
in a fruit stand basket
sampling with my eyes
Cricket
cricket sings
cheerfully goes about
his undertaking
Partners
ruffled brown sparrows
clean up seeds on the snow
partners with the wind
Cotton fields
cotton fields a-bloom
echoing rattle of chains
as bikers zip past
Without a Splash
the full moon
tosses five geese on the lake
without a splash
Wise to You Now
I’m wise to you now
your blind self importance
icicles melting
Brownies
chewing brownies
the lingering taste
of a bad nut
Invasive species
cricket climbs over
a zucchini in its path
invasive species
