CINQUAINS
FROM THE PORCH SWING
My back'
to the roses
by the Couchwood Drive sign,
their beauty stands for others to
enjoy.
EACH DAY
Mornings,
when I sit out,
I should look around for
something new. Today, it's rain on
the ramp.
SOMETHING NEW
Today,
when I look out,
I see six white toadstools
of different sizes on the south
side yard.
I WATCH
Juvy
female redbird
perches on the shepherds
crook above the purslane pot. Then
she bathes.
A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC
Night bugs
not waiting for
dark to begin their songs.
Now, polyphonic arias
emerge.
