summer drought—
a can of worms
left on the dock
#30, February 2015
boarded-up cabin—
goose tracks
across the wet porch

a toast to the bride—
my reflection
in the wine glass
#30, February 2015
pink bus
on the cherry
beginning to show
#30, February 2015 (in “Emergency” haibun)
not so cold
when you take my hand
the seaside cave

prairie sky—
the sudden spray
from a peeled mandarin
#38, October 2017
first winter storm—
the weathervane
points north
