magnolia tree
last years pants
two inches too short
first warm day
petals stuck to shoes
bare feet
damp spring grass
still running
summer sun
sets beyond the dock
fireworks
coloring
the new moon
Indian Summer
bottling the last fireflies
painted faces
parading upon stilts
above Paris streets
my inner child
tugs me along
a lone row boat
escaping across
the still lake
picnic in the park
ants steal our crumbs
overturned canoe
drifting
across the night sky
shooting star
dashes above us
the woman touches
her swollen stomach
full moon
pacing the floors at sunrise
newborn walls
25 foot cake
one candle
baby's frosted face
wobbly first steps
camera flashes
body sprawled
awkwardly
amongst the cherry blossoms
afternoon nap
cat purring against my hip
cradling hammock
whispering breezes
rock us to sleep
racing past
children tip me over
empty swing
blowing wildly
in the breeze
lightning flashes
first summer thunderstorm
puddle streets
speckled windows
puzzle day
windshield wipers
slowly back and forth
on his deathbed
the clock
strikes midnight
quietly
life moves on
white descends on
on old bed-sheets
final breath
funeral flowers
turn the house into a garden
stargazing
while the wind
rustles the leaves above
we grab hands
linking together
promise of snow
pulling scarves tighter
against the bitter wind
the street seems silent
beneath the blanket of snow
roads slick with ice
a man with his truck
makes them safe
haloed street lamps
lonely night drive
cheery blossoms
ashes fall from the
glowing end of a cigarette
exhaling
I see my breath
