winter silhouettes
a copse of sailboat masts cut
from the dawning sky
Migration
The loon framed against
A burnished copper sky flies
Towards the setting sun
Regrets
All this cheap bourbon
Can’t help me forget the blood
I just can’t wash off
Pursuit
With outstretched talons
The barn owl glides silently
Focused on it prey
Kilauea
Pele watches as
Pregnant clouds spill down over
The caldera’s rim
Memories
Lightning bugs at dusk
Their glow, a beacon for those
Seeking simpler times
Awakening
I took for granted
Always waking up next to
Your side of the bed
Caution
Lessons from the past
Harbingers of the future
We choose to ignore
Amour
Lost in the moment
The rise and fall of your breast
As you fall asleep
