Son Eric's backyard last summer. His photo.
calico sniffing
the cherries and pear
in the new kitchen rug
~~~
bermuda
growing better
in my flower beds
[from Janet Carson, AR Living, June '14]
~~~
a former rent house
now only an old picture--
the new school building
~~~
shorn by funnel cloud
it will never again shade
the old man's milk cow
~~~
working the crossword
a mosquito grazes
the top of my pen
~~~
male cardinal
on a limb
above the red truck
~~~
dusk
stomping the roach-shaped leaf
into the carpet
~~~
thirty minutes
after 'lights out'
thinking of another poem
[written 10 years ago to the date]
