summer 2010
thunderclap!
the sound of summer
breaking up
cornsilk...
her arthritic fingers
still nimble
a motorcycle's roar
splits the night —
half a dream
old bark peeling away the years
all those doors
I never opened...
rosebud
skirl of the pipes —
sunset colors drain
from the clouds
fragile summer...
the smell of death
in the water
sandals crunch stone against stone longest day
laundry day —
the backyard willow
dripping shadows
first star...
where does forever
begin?
a spurt of sunlight
after the rain shower —
the gardener's smile
pastel twilight —
I listen for echoes
he left behind
