Going home
children chased by
their footprints
|
jr
|
every step
smells of earth
|
bw
|
barefoot
her sweat socks
still do
|
jr
|
swept into the air
dance floor dirt
|
bw
|
a halo
around the moon
tomorrow's storm
|
jr
|
ocean's down
pouring on mountains
* * * * *
|
bw
|
a feather bed
the muffled sound of rain
on duck backs
|
bw
|
tickling each other
lovers gasp and giggle
|
jr
|
rolling
down a grassy hill
a sneeze
|
bw
|
God bless you!
cries the atheist
|
jr
|
ahhhh
under the heavens
pissing together
|
bw
|
frogs in the pond
respond
|
jr
|
echo canyon
the silence
cracked by ice
|
bw
|
a touch of ocean waves
the morning moon melts
|
jr
|
submerged
in dark nights
dreams
|
bw
|
images whirl with light
lifting us from our heads
|
jr
|
lotus blossom opens
satori
in the old pond
|
bw
|
an owl hoots
a hole in the bridge
* * * * *
|
jr |
high winds
memories
of a flight
|
jr
|
the bird's wing
wedge in the sky
|
bw
|
low flying clouds
pine mountain loosens
a day of rain
|
jr
|
immersed in a book
words swimming
|
bw
|
periwinkles
signing their names
in wet sand
|
jr
|
footprints linger
on an ebb-tide beach
|
bw
|
high on a cliff
party people
head for home
|
jr
|
an empty road
a hollow stomach
|
bw
|
over the hill
into a sky of clouds
several suns
|
jr
|
attached to kite string
one small boy
|
bw
|
tension mounts
the moon fills the bay
late with water
|
jr
|
caught in a cat's paws
a small stone
* * * * *
|
bw
|
what an airhead!
she thinks the wind
a lover
|
bw
|
old hunting dog
in heat again
|
jr
|
warm afternoon
the smell of skin
sun-glazed
|
bw
|
coppertone ad
peeling off the billboard
|
jr
|
wildflowers open
along the roadside
a gate
|
bw
|
by a wishing well
a bottomless bucket
|
