on my tongue
I taste the bitter words--
potent medicine.

hidden in the early morning fog
the fog lifts

disappears
in the foggy mirage
early morning
giving way to stifling day
the fog lifts

Ember Days

I feel the coolness
in the quiet harvest night
and offer thanks

pink and ubiquitous
the dry paint recoils from the walls
barely hanging on

collapsing star
focused; centered energy
paths converge
the small house
time for letting go--
yellow kitchen
through my brain
crystalline sounds drift...
your music

I hold the knitted shawl
the jeweled colors dance
in the bright and airy room
new hope

Horrified, she circles the

in the cold
optimistic bird
singing loudly
