black vultures
umbrella parade
morning rain
the waiting backhoe
a dinosaur in the fog
men begin their work
grackles rise and fall
leaves in the wild slipstream
passing trucks
he scribbles
a sidewalk chalk moon
whirling wind
—
Inspiration from Angie Werren who’s using full moon names as kigo this month. “Whirling wind moon” is passamaquoddy.
cool evening
jack-o-lantern thoughts
in August
he stands in his crib
smiling and waving at me
where have ten months gone?
the road to Houston
firewheels and sunflowers sway
along the shoulder
leaves whisper
a cumulus plume
turns the hour
just east of Houston
laughing gulls replace vultures
in the raucous sky
Easter evening
a distant white-winged dove calls
clouds drift south
