Listening for Fall
On my back gazing upward
Dry leaves rustling
poems
Twilight
Brilliant twilight sky
Outlining the pure, dark form
Of oak trees above
Sunflowers
The ten sunflowers
You bought for her have wilted.
Why don’t you notice?
Wind Through Branches
The tree dances.
The tree is alive.
Am I?
Beach Day
Pure white sea foam
Warm beige sand
Vibrant green waves
Deep blue ocean full of life
And the lightest blue sky you can imagine
Rest
Reading my textbooks
On the couch all afternoon
Watching the light fade

Refuge
A stray butterfly
Flitting through eucalyptus
Safe from the strong wind
Sound at Night
Awake before dawn
Listening to the surf roar
A mile away
Softening
Heart swelling with love
Like high tide on a full moon
Sudden clarity
Phoebe’s Dream
Scooby-dooby-doo
Follows alligator prints
Who stole the salad?
