Years and years of drought
Old trees fall, dust storms blow
And then the rains came
Front yard lake
Rain

Two Peaches
Hundreds of peach blooms
Flourished before the late freeze
Now, only two grow
Full of promise
Rain Enough
Rain enough, and more
That Black-bellied Whistling Ducks
Swim across my yard
Not too deep, not too shallow, just right
Four Pens
Selecting from the display
Ball points, rollerballs, even gels
Writing haikus on butcher paper
Sampling the viscosity
Pink, blue, purple, white
New pens are fun
What to write, what to draw? So many possibilities!
Life Laughs Last
Death’s bleached mask peeks through
Flowers that ignore its claim
Life laughs last, again
Life, death, life
It's a long story ...
