another leaf
in the caretaker's hands -
Autumn

hurry snail!
a duck’s tail
points skyward

seven vows follow
seven steps
a ring around the fire

a bullfrog’s belch
among the water lilies…
the mayfly's peril

side by side
we share…
community garden

his brush the pencil
in his hands find the canvass
a new good old friend

morning glory...
two seeds
risen from their beds

windchimes
silenced for now
hurry wind

The deafening roar of reticent rumination

April showers
paw prints
on the carpet

why is it so hard t0 take advice
when we may not get a chance to take it twice

dog...
where are you
soul

the sound
of frozen water

8 minature reindeer
upon my roof...
too much nutmeg

hungry and cold...
Santa forgot the wish
for her dad

you better not cry
you better not pout
...homeless child

Christmas shoppers
hungry for bargains...
outside, the bell ringer

"going green"
I put on a scarf
to watch TV

headlight
broken glass
and deer
