guiding the boat
a chilly river
welcomes

rustling leaves…
the stars
through passing clouds

my thoughts flow
with the current
of homework

she leaves with him
the nice guy sighs . . .
another dinner alone

hidden
underneath the mask
an unexpected guest

on the goal
a spectator
takes flight

glowing embers
of the dying fire
thoughts of her lingering

crunchy leaf
smell of snow
in the air

Friday the 13th-
Lady Luck
sleeps in

night sky
dreaming . . .
of our future

through the hotel window
milling around the Effiel Tower...
they look like ants

honeymoon suite—
she forgot her ring
in the nightstand drawer

light rain
trickling down the hill
silence . . .

a haunted house
she hides
. . . behind me

Chinese restaurant
on the door
“no pets allowed”

lying on the warm sidewalk
little me
BIG sky

snowy peaks
pierce the clouds
faint tracks of a sled

single dim light
illuminates the dancers
the flies pause, watching

the mountain tops
miles above
the city

mother’s wallpaper
hangs weeping
behind the crib

swaying in his arms
feet sticking
to the beer stained floor

blue waves crashing!
. . . me
in a little fishing boat

the moon
over the water
midnight hike

redwoods
touching the heavens
a shack

a chilly breeze
she's nestled
beside me

winter morning—
brittle grass hides
under a blanket

orange sky
cold wind
. . . pumpkins on the lawn

the star's glow
overpowers
... me

dripping
the sink fills with water
let the morning begin

even the
prairie landscape
has no cleavage

midget
for a moment
giant sequoias

bending
not flowing
nameless creek

today can decide
to be long
or not to be

mirror
reflection of me
I don’t like it

burning leaves
billowing smoke
I'm l o s t

deer tracks
in the snow
revealing secrets

pounding hooves
the caterpillar
stands defiant

a crowd of people
surges on
a penny!

another day wasted
in the world . . .
of Warcraft
