wind gust— my children's breath while they sleep |
|
family reunion— wild turkeys among the headstones |
|
Christmas Eve— my children pretend to snore |
|
sand speckled by autumn rain— her hand in mine |
|
midnight— the window fan dices a train whistle |
|
fallen rose petals— a Japanese beetle tries to right itself |
|
between innings— the joy of the game on my son's face |
|
a sweat bee stings my hand— summer heat |
