ebb tide
the heron steps
into twilight | sballas |
daybreak . . .
a migratory bird's feather
on the path | sballas |
love:
a kigo for all
seasons | sballas |
a memorial bell
"tolls tolls and stops
" | but his words . . . |
blue dragonfly
pine needles cover
the narrow path | sballas |
the mountain pine??
"holding the light
" | held by it |
?bill's day???
draw the letters
in aspen-glow | sballas |
a little cold
and without the bright fish
this golden pond | sballas |
gray october
the poet's voice
outlives him | sballas |
full moon
and so my thoughts
turn to you | sballas |
vest pocket park
the leaves a little
less brilliant | sballas |
at his passing??
a ripple in the river
of stars | sballas |
misty shroud??
leaves falling
between the rails | sballas |
sunset fades
from the highest peak??
autumn chill | sballas |
higginson's haiku
still among the living;
the autumn wind | sballas |
a teacher's passing . . .
moonlight bathes
the apple tree | sballas |
another light
now??
among the stars | sballas |
a gentle breeze ripples
everywhere his words
leaves on grass | sballas |
opening his book . . .
the world he offered
tumbles out | sballas |
beyond emptiness
the moon filling itself
for certain | sballas |
autumn evening . . .
adding another star
to the milky way | sballas |
prayer flags
the autumn leaves carry
the blessings to you | sballas |
cloudy day
the janitor misses
a fallen leaf | sballas |
surf murmurs
the basso continuo
behind the dunes | sballas |
this fragility??
white cranes laced
in the air | sballas |
dry autumn
the fading vibrance
of a spider lily | sballas |
hard to tell you
how i feel . . .
this late autumn sky | sballas |
petrified forest
a stone axe echoes
in the sky | sballas |
autumn ginko
one by one
into mist | sballas |
harvest home
a red nasturtium
heads for the stars | sballas |
a single breath
the ember
comes to life | sballas |
leaving us in autumn . . .
leaving behind him
the blossoms to come | sballas |
ebbing tide
a bright shell caught
by the current | sballas |
tree leaves fall
as the long journey begins
a fading hymn | sballas |
white hydrangea
fading
in white light | sballas |
insect chirps
lingering low on the ground
the later moon | sballas |
heavy fog??
the mountain still back there
out of sight | sballas |
what a silence!
and nobody's around
to share it with | sballas |
migrating birds??
i hear his voice in the wind
toward nirvanna | sballas |
bleu roi
a thousand flying foxes
quarter moon | sballas |
walking alone
the filtered sounds
of the hototogisu | sballas |
dusk
a half-ripe melon
frees itself from the vine | sballas |
patter of raindrops
in autumn leaves . . .
the seasons turn | sballas |
his passing . . .
the small fir collects
fallen leaves | sballas |
starry night . . .
a worn phone number
in the handbook | sballas |
morning frost
a monk's chant
crosses the river | sballas |
stalagmites
a passel of school children
up ahead | sballas |
autumn leaves . . .
in the book she gave me
an old library stamp | sballas |
autumn gust
the starlings? wings
tilt in unison | sballas |
withered juniper??
mother's hair
since the nursing home | sballas |
village temple??
kids behind the gods
playing hide and seek | sballas |
through endless rain
the whistle
of the paperboy | sballas |
the taste of cider
when fallen leaves begin
to overlap | sballas |
bustling shoppers??
the bell ringer's
prosthetic hand | sballas |
winter solstice . . .
smoothing a folded corner
in my library book | sballas |
a single bubble
after the beaver dives
the rising moon | sballas |
the gardener
and his scarecrow
the same hat | sballas |
crows swagger
down the middle of the road
summer's end | sballas |
starting school tomorrow??
he talks to trees
at the woods? edge | sballas |
labor day
a spot of barbecue sauce
on the face of my watch | sballas |
summer's end
two flies fighting
over me | sballas |
old blue car??
the ease
of summer's last days | sballas |
"a still
starry night??"
train tracks | wet with dew |
scudding clouds
the snake as long
as my sleeve | sballas |
stump speech??
this black and white butterfly
in none of the field guides | sballas |
thundercloud
blue veins down to the heart
of the gentian | sballas |
sunburst . . .
bits of river
through the mangroves | sballas |
a whiff of kelp
as i clear out the trunk??
summer moon | sballas |
scenic outlook
each step reveals
more grasshoppers | sballas |
jasmine in bloom??
termites swarm
from their nest | sballas |
bark butter??
a nuthatch
works the edges | sballas |
mountain slopes
getting wet as i walk
through clouds | sballas |
city bus stop . . .
the boy squats in the shadow
of his pregnant mother | sballas |
so many ways
to see the world
snake in the grass | sballas |
haloed moon
the hawker twirls
his glow bracelets | sballas |
summer dawn
the cat brings the rain
to bed | sballas |
summer stars
hot buttered corn
on our smiles | sballas |
summer brook
perfect skipping stone
on the other side | sballas |
rain on summer sand
a child writes
the dead pony's name | sballas |
wet sand . . .
the summer wind
sets our pace | sballas |
peach season
friends come to visit
our tree | sballas |
coffee shop??
hearing his name
in someone else's conversation | sballas |
father-in-law's death
one gardenia petal
falls in the rain | sballas |
razor wire
in the lime tree
a bird song | sballas |
rolling sunset . . .
the dark side
of a wave | sballas |
goldfish
in the graveyard pond
spring sunshine | sballas |
family reunion
chachalacas shake
the branches | sballas |
dusk
the last calf
settles into the herd | sballas |
morning rain
a handful of strawberries
just as cool | sballas |
beach walk
i shift a coconut
from hand to hand | sballas |
warming breeze??
the barber's pile of clippings
a little bigger | sballas |
evening traffic . . .
rubber lizards for sale
still on the pavement | sballas |
first summer rain
the bride and groom pause
in their dance | sballas |
tin roof
two doves settle
into a groove | sballas |
village bells
the sun-warmed odor
of cattle | sballas |
museum dusk
mannequin soldiers
hold their ground | sballas |
nest-building??
a magpie sings
with its mouth full | sballas |
softly the quail
from their crowded crates
greet the dawn | sballas |
april
the shadows
bloom | sballas |
spring book signing
the poet's pen
skips | sballas |
Subsets and Splits
