one short chapter-
I move the lawn chair
to reclaim some sun
spring
the joy of a book
in the park

abandoned lot-
chocolate milk carton
bleached white
down the line
sun shine day dreams
waiting for a train…

you, ready as me
there on the other coast
imagine, to hop a freight
and leave behind all
that didn’t seem quite right
a string
of covered hoppers
in the winter sun
beneath the wheel by tom clausen

much of my life spent
wanting others to like
what I like-
in my jacket pocket the stone
is worked with worries
beneath the wheel
flecks of new rust
on the rail…

snow patches
throughout the woods
pine scent
on the path
the geese part
to let me pass
eye to eye
the exchange
of a moment
valley fog:
out of it
geese in formation

at the old parking lot
the sparrows bathe
in a big puddle
sometimes I’m so happy
just to be here as witness
breaking
the reflection stillness
rain drops
