calm creek
under the bridge
a resting spot

rising
above the fall air
fireworks

Saturday the 14th
a quaint discussion
about superstition

fall morning
my throat is sore . . .
the open window

 

 

 

top quarter champion

 

top half champion

bottom quarter champion

 

 

in a battered barn
the hay loft
someone's fortress

tires and children
squeal…
I’m home

spring breeze
bike ride
with Dad

swing in the park
where I sat—
my son sits

 

top half champion

 

champion

bottom half champion

cold coffee in
a fluorescent waiting room
we wait for her surgery to end

the love of
my life
snores

even on the roof
the government’s rules apply ...
Middle East

a conquered
mountain
my father's tractor

 

 

 

top quarter champion

 

bottom half champion

bottom quarter champion

 

 

hidden behind doors
protected from others
my drawing shelf

at the end
of the beaten path
my sanctuary

the setting sun
my basketball
a brief eclispe

midnight rain
hits the windows
dorm lounge
