leaves blown onto the south steps
Windy--
oak leaves settle
until the next gust hits,
& then they scatter farther down
the porch.--PL

open window--
a passing train's whistle
on the cool night air

three generations
and the calico . . . Sunday
afternoon naps

six-foot wingspan
the blue heron lifting
from algae-filled pond

a vice-president's
new life as a chimney sweep
his colleagues all died

another full moon
bigger brighter rounder than
any seen in childhood
--Dion O'Donnol, CA
encased in ice
limbs and lights sagging
Santa on the firetruck
