I have cut my heart
into petals, strewn them
at your feet.
Walk to me.

Pillars of rain
Pillars of rain bash
mile-high against the shore: here
ancient trees endure
~~~
but on the trees
Snow falls heavy, thick,
but on the trees
pink buds, tiny, wait
~~~
Birds, frogs, grasses
Birds, frogs, grasses:
Sudden riot of song —
Rain during drought.

The late March snowfall
The late March snowfall
melts on Sunday: brown cows
sprawl on matted grass
Moonlit snow records
Moonlit snow records
small creatures’ escapades. Sun
wipes the slate clean.

Bright star pierces

Frigid midnight:
shooting star. At dawn
the back deck sparkles.

Rage, storm
Rage, storm: rescue me
from bland and careful living.
Teach me your wild ways.

Walk you to work
Walk you to work through
deep snow. Homeward, I trace our
boot prints, side by side.
