Post-election poems

two tails
with lives of their own
she-cats facing off

[PL- from November Nuggets, 2003]
~~

rush to early church
my watch on upside down
and unmatched earrings

[PL - from before the frost, 2005]
~~

library visit
the child in awe of how quiet
grown-ups can be

[PL - from at the sound of geese, 2006]
~~

sassafras grove
adding fieriness
to the fall sunrise

[PL - from the last windfall pear, 2011]
~~

DST again
as the light wanes early
insect songs begin

[PL - from apples into swans, 2012]
~~

oh, no!
seeing results
of Tuesday's election

[PL - still in journal, 2014]
