spider spins his weboblivious to the curious cateight feet below
cat stares at the wallpawing at the wooden floornot finding the mouse
"He's okay," one says.The doctors look at each otherknowingly.
looking backon the wedding dayred flags
eye of providencemythological all-seeingrefuge of fools
plain oatmeal+ banana and blueberries =breakfast of champions
in the dooryarda kaleidoscope of butterfliescolors the garden
a dozen rosessends a clear messagered white or blue
dangling earringsreflect the light of the fire --jeweled chandeliers
north wind blows cold --dancing lights in the night skycreate false warmth
coffee's aromachanges the mood of the housefrom dark to sunny
straightened by the windthe flags above the post officebear no ill will
a Coca-Colaperfectly complementsa Reuben sandwich
waiting for the thawan unkindness of ravenson the frozen pond
truth:a thing that people seekand hope to never find
7:08 p.m. --sun low on the horizonpeaks through gossamer
hope, dreamboulder, garden, stream --home for sale
Elvis CostelloPaolo Soleri Amphitheaterclose enough to touch
standing in the snowby a stream lined with pinesa bull moose drinks
a looka leapa flight of fancy filled with love
