last cookie
me and my brother
shared

2

car ride
silent
listening to the radio

3

many a thought
crossed my mind
a train leaves

4

afraid of shadows
in the big city;
foe . . . or friend?

5

vibrations
fill my chest
the rumbling train car

6

hot sun
hands in the dirt
sweating profusely

7

rain pats the windshield
as we sneak
a quick kiss

8

dog suntans
on the deck
smells like Cheetos

9

way past
the five-second rule
red hot off the floor

10

ten minutes late
stopping for geese
winter is over

11

holding on
with all their roots
a skin of moss

12

chilly day, I am
skipping over
sidewalk lines

13

spring break
the crocus first
of all

14

campfire shines
in a cool dark creek
fish splash

15

the fall of leaves
gives butterflies
a home

16

distant thunder
somewhere beyond me
the world turns

17

a hummingbird
stops for a rest.
at my feeder

18

cul-de-sac critters
close their eyes
tricycle bell
