high above
the end of this long day
sliver of moon | sballas |
sunday morning
a neighbor comes out
to clap his shoes | sballas |
floating
through my thought
butterfly | sballas |
rose trellis
a butterfly adjusts
its flight | sballas |
garden swing?
cat and butterfly
in mid-air | sballas |
three fiddlers?
a dog weaves between
pints of stout | sballas |
she speaks softly
she speaks of daffodils
i write it down | sballas |
bumblebee
the buzz
between flowers | sballas |
a child's laughter
the touch
of a touch-me-not | sballas |
cool summer morning
i take my thoughts
out to the porch | sballas |
lightning flash
how short
the stubble | sballas |
cloudcast afternoon?
corn popping
on the stove | sballas |
an old man's breathing
barely moves the newspaper
winter dusk | sballas |
winter stars?
shaking rust down from
the old swing set | sballas |
grand canal
row on row of gondolas
tossing at their stakes | sballas |
crochet hook
pulling the yarn through
deep november | sballas |
porch sitting?
the scallop of snowy hills
in his gesture | sballas |
bright venus
two hawks settle
deep in the pine | sballas |
approaching storm
a peacock's cry above
the wind | sballas |
tattered windsock?
a harbor seal slips between
two dinghies | sballas |
pond shimmer
there not there
grebes | sballas |
early spring
the honey pot
nearly empty | sballas |
goose crossing
the old pick-up's
broken horn | sballas |
valley stillness??
a butterfly passes through
an empty log | sballas |
fading stars
a hedgehog haphazards
its way back home | sballas |
filtered sunlight
where the forest thins
daffodils | sballas |
her gray hair
gone blonde??
first day of spring | sballas |
fiddlehead fern
the way it rolls
off the tongue | sballas |
sunset
flash of starlings
in the acacia | sballas |
day lilies
waking to find
it wasn?t a dream | sballas |
a grain of rice
on the mayor's face . . .
new year's levee | sballas |
winter chill
turkey vultures circling
one of their own | sballas |
long train
the roundness of snow
on tanker cars | sballas |
winter tulips
squeaking
as they enter the vase | sballas |
rabbits at dusk
as if foxes did not also
love twilight | sballas |
january??
the gym crowded
with resolutions | sballas |
forecasted storm . . .
the low-battery
in my kindle | sballas |
hunger moon
the sound of squirrel teeth
on a hazelnut | sballas |
winter mist
at the stoplight pink sneakers
keep running | sballas |
lent is over
a bartender flips
the coaster | sballas |
my housefly's autumn
the window with the hills
of apple trees | sballas |
moonlit waves
the glow of streetlights
on clapboard cottages | sballas |
snow in the forecast??
some extra spice
in the jambalya | sballas |
12.01 am
flying a drunkard's path
the year's first moth | sballas |
snow erasing
the garden's features??
teaching my dad to shave | sballas |
unilingual
i study the expressions
in a wren's eye | sballas |
first cold day
the cat kneads
a patch of sunlight | sballas |
first flakes
discovering my childhood
in a box | sballas |
orion's belt
my words byte by byte
to another continent | sballas |
after the funeral
snow covers
the dark places | sballas |
rustle of palm leaves . . .
fishermen play cards
in the boat's shade | sballas |
roadside walk
a beggar stretches
leg as hand | sballas |
fiddlers? festival
the bull frogs?
uneven harmony | sballas |
alone
with dad's old songs
another night of fireflies | sballas |
adonis blue . . .
searching in vain
among the heathcliffs | sballas |
summer afternoon??
the saxophone busker
takes a drag | sballas |
tornado watch
cricket songs carried
from tall grass | sballas |
gypsy violin . . .
the wheat harvest
sparkling with fireflies | sballas |
mountain pass wind
whistles through my pack frame??
a pika answers | sballas |
crescent moon
quiet lullaby
from the rocker | sballas |
first flakes
the nowhere voices
of geese | sballas |
the snow
follows grace
stone soup | sballas |
first
in the last trash bag??
the box it came in | sballas |
winter frost??
the sword's sharp shine
out of the sheath | sballas |
a rose petal
in the singing bowl . . .
first blackbird | sballas |
all saints? day dusk:
a blackbird's alarm call
sets off another | sballas |
folding the map
part of the country ends
in the ocean | sballas |
new year's day
the cloud that held the mountain
lets go | sballas |
winter thaw
tasting spiced cider
on my lover's tongue | sballas |
bare trees
a request for an update
of my bio | sballas |
glare ice
the old dog
pees on the moon | sballas |
sun-bright morning
dragons of factory smoke
dissolved by wind | sballas |
after all the things
that have gone wrong??
plum blossoms | sballas |
i find myself
losing the trail . . .
greening woods | sballas |
spring cleaning??
my daughter finds the key
to the music box | sballas |
wind blown snow
a ewe's cry
in the night | sballas |
mild winter
the shore ice
releases its litter | sballas |
measuring a life
from crocus
to crocus | sballas |
songbirds returning . . .
the tunes my father
would whistle | sballas |
trail frog
the children
jump back | sballas |
early spring . . .
specks from the sky
settle near the river | sballas |
the robin's song
garlic shoots
lift the soil | sballas |
daylight saving
the neighbor's pregnancy
begins to show | sballas |
butterbur
the rabbits explore
a little further | sballas |
stuffed in a bus
the scent of spring
in a woman's musk | sballas |
inside the bud
all the reasons
to believe | sballas |
the swell
before the river splits
into another name | sballas |
from the far bank
the two-note squeaks of coot chicks
strobe the river | sballas |
outdoor wall
banyan shoot curls
in my shadow | sballas |
in the stream
a lone fisherman
that once was me | sballas |
stargazer lily . . .
a dab of pollen on the tip
of her nose | sballas |
primrose??
a new nurse hired
in the playhouse | sballas |
sweetfish fall downstream
how easily i slip
into yesterday | sballas |
our legs
stir up phosphorescence
the heat | sballas |
clouds drift . . .
the trail of a rain drop
on a dirt covered leaf | sballas |
butterfly
the thought of myself
not thinking | sballas |
yard sale??
listening to sunsets
in the conch shell | sballas |
slow current . . .
the rusting shadow
of a truss bridge | sballas |
peaceful evening
the drip
of oars at rest | sballas |
dusk . . .
the home plate umpire
brushes it off again | sballas |
