haiku
unforgiving grass
tricycle lays on its side
Mother’s gentle kiss
hungry white gulls watch
fish cleaned at the waters edge
crimson waves recede
reflecting blue sky
the thunderstorm has passed over
fresh water puddles
clleaning last years fields
horizon a string of flame
sun wrapped in blue plumes
mule deer climb the hill
home bound geese stitch the dark sky
the air smells of snow
yellow onions hang
tied with cord from the rafters
rows of empty white planters
