Description
-31-
an end
is but the start
of many possibilities

-30-
too long from sunlight
even the hardy
wither

-29-
sand moves
feet falter
trying to keep pace

-28-
severed bud
craves water
that it may yet bloom

-27-
brooding skies surround
but here
we lie in sunlight

-26-
curled in my lap
she purrs-
content

-25-
lips engulf
the plump strawberry:
ecstasy

-24-
dulcet music-
how soon to be satisfied,
this yearning?

-23-
sweet strawberry
bitter tea-
decadent blend

-22-
branches
kissed by dawn
find their vigor

-21-
solitary tree-
stripped limbs make
a mute entreaty

-20-
rousing
life defies
the abrupt chill

-19-
pear branch-
buds among thorns

-18-
beyond the fence
poppies

-17-
scraggly shrub
dons a transforming robe-
white and pink petals

-16-
a phantom's song
in duet-
unexpected tears

-15-
reveling
in the wonder of a child
discovering history

-14-
the pleasant paradox
of cold wind
and sunshine

-13-
on massive shoulders,
rugged clouds
lift the sky

-12-
sneeze to my left
sniffle to my right-
pollen looms

-11-
black tea;
dark morning-
one cures the other

-10-
foul thief!
I want my hour back!

-9-
plastic tubes
become a new world
to the children

-8-
whirling blades
reap grass and weed-
yellow eyes remain

-7-
returning,
friends make the world
whole again

-6-
white disk or azure tube...
which will quash the pain today?

-5-
fluffy cat peeking in,
her coat
still thinks it's winter

-4-
engulfed in blossoms,
neighbor's tree
shames my scruffy lawn

-3-
parched air’s electric gift-
passed on with a zap
and a yelp

-2-
light breeze, light jacket-
like my cats,
I shed my winter coat

-1-
cleansing winter rains-
why have they left
my car so filthy?
