an oak tree
with bare-knuckled roots ...
alone at twilight
_______________
scent of the morning air ...
the breeze pulls over me
a quilt of blossoms
_______________
raft of cherry petals
making a turn
the shadow and I
_______________
dripping faucet
and a pile of dishes ...
frosty morning
_______________
cloud upon cloud
along the snowy peaks ...
her unspoken words
_______________
