haiku--By Patricia Nolan--United States

pasque flowers
reflect purple mountain
       shadows

********************

pink moon month
clean up the garden - imagine
summer colors

********************

old tapes in my head
"keep your eye on the ball"
be present     notice

********************

moon at apogee
hear the distance
taste the darkness
