when your
woes seem like
they will never end,
do not despair, my friend-
life comes in moments,
and a sunny day
is never too
far away

with epaulets of scarlet and gold,
the blackbird’s a sight to behold;
his black wings sure ‘pop’
with red patches on top,
and he looks like a cop on patrol.

root beer rivers
we have rivers here up north
that appear to be sky blue,
but underneath their ripples
they are amber thru and thru.
they pick up many minerals
as they cross our iron range–
here, mother earth’s a hardy gal
with iron in her veins.

our worries only double

eagles seize the trees
bending limbs like heavy fruit–
still, stoic judges

now when my
daughter’s kids show up,
it’s just like
they’re my own–
‘cept that when i’ve had enough,
i can send them home

the deadliest wild
creature in america
is… the gentle deer
deer cause hundreds of highway
fatalities every year

senryu 89
our souls are like swans–
often seeking sustenance
in muddy waters

a lamppost’s soft glow
is eerily comforting
in the pouring rain

Limerick 91
It displeases my Freya to see
My attention on just the TV,
But she knows where to go
To steal the show–
And her green eyes say, “No! Look at me!”
