spring breeze
except for
some weeds
the grass
a deeper green
trial separation
the candlelight
slowly ebbs
mars bright
in the autumn sky
change of seasons
a quiet walk
the space
between us
grows longer
with only one thing
to do
before doing it
i do something
else instead
early morning chill
recently divorced
a warm sweater
some extra sugar
in the coffee
stormy skies
the singing of
national anthems
leaves falling
in the breeze
what i know now
after you left
fascinated by a clown
for a short time
while at the circus
stranger along the path
i too
among the
cherry blossoms
pause
