Crocheting

wedding table

a disposable camera

by the couple’s name

            *

summer garden—

dad’s old hoe

saved for kindling

            *

dawn of the day—

red leaves blow off

the kitchen skylight

            *

she tells me

I’m her heart’s desire . . .

budding blossoms

            *

daisy chain—

the fourth grader adds a link

to the teacher’s

            *

a calm sea—

she points out

her magic star

            *

unmowed field—

prairie flowers

mark the end zone

            *

April morning—

the smell of fresh paint

through a bedroom window
