downpour-
a duck waddles away
from the pond
the happy chap
says good morning
…to himself

at the ocean’s edge
honeymooners in the sun
build a sandcastle
quiet evening-
a spider walks its shadow
on the wall
without thought
until after
squashing the gypsy moth
in the attic
an old sleeping bag rolled
with childhood

far end of town,
wide u-turn
the hot rod
cicada whining –
she’s already talking
about Christmas
back from vacation…
fiddling and fiddling with
the combination
minimal order-
the waiter looks out
the window

morning zazen:
marriage counseling
ourselves
daybreak frost
the sound of leaves falling

under the manhole
the night gives
a gurgle
goldenrod gall
quivers-
blowing snow

the old canoe
the only piece of roof
left on the shed
end to end
three Ramblers take part
in the overgrown field
everyday she waits
at the bus stop;
just to wait
the summer it rained
all summer…
dwarf sunflowers without faces
cleaning the poop out…
his little Superman
underpants
