Waiting
A tendril of smoke
Rises from her cigarette
As she sits alone

Fall
Autumn’s final leaf
Lets go it’s hold on winter
And portends the spring
Barefoot
Shards of your anger
Litter the ground around you
Keeping me at bay
Migration
The loon framed against
A burnished copper sky flies
Towards the setting sun
Regrets
All this cheap bourbon
Can’t help me forget the blood
I just can’t wash off
Memories
Lightning bugs at dusk
Their glow, a beacon for those
Seeking simpler times
Awakening
I took for granted
Always waking up next to
Your side of the bed
Caution
Lessons from the past
Harbingers of the future
We choose to ignore
Peep
The springtime wetland
Chorus comes alive at dusk
As the peep frogs sing
Hope
From the sheer cliff face
An eager seedling rises
Grasping at the sun
