summer 2011

morning coolness
rainbow colors sway
in a cobweb


kitchen fly —
would I love you if you had
butterfly wings?


a red sunset
fading into grey...
tick tock


pond willow
shadows weaving
shadows


the scent of mint
in a plastic bag —
my daughter's garden


midday mosquito
my elbow the only place
I didn't spray


as if the sky
were photoshopped —
evening breeze


late summer
today's spider
gets the boot


pink-tinged clouds
behind the firs...
I missed the sunset
