my wedding pictures
winter solstice | tempslibres |
after-party
we blow out candles
to hear the stars | tempslibres |
her hips
sway our debate on sex
summer heat | tempslibres |
the cold moon...
I recycle a dream
from my youth | tempslibres |
night deepening
the office secretary adjusts
her low-cut top | tempslibres |
divorce talk
each sip of tea more bitter
than the last | tempslibres |
prairie...
between heaven and earth
an eagle | tempslibres |
a fork in the trail
the wind takes
our old map | tempslibres |
her nose print
on the hospice window ..
a patch of sunlight | tempslibres |
snow on snow …
the depth of night
in this attic | tempslibres |
Gaza at twilight…
crying old tears
at a new funeral | tempslibres |
a crow’s cry ...
the winter sky darkens
into the prairie | tempslibres |
a long line of cars
behind the hearse
migrating snow geese | tempslibres |
between cries
of neighbor's baby
symphony no. 9 | tempslibres |
traveling
far away in thought ...
hospice window | tempslibres |
harvest moon rising ...
a tremble
in the migrant's voice | tempslibres |
therapy session:
winter rain on the window
deepens the silence | tempslibres |
a white butterfly
flitting through the stillness ...
church grave yard | tempslibres |
distant sirens
over the border bridge
a blood moon | tempslibres |
a pigtailed girl
outside the cancer center
morning glories | tempslibres |
her face
in my whiisky
the moon floats | tempslibres |
one by one
fireflies escape my glass jar...
starry night | tempslibres |
the rice song
mother sang to me ...
first spring rain | tempslibres |
first glimpse
of her mastectomy bra
winter rose | tempslibres |
hospice verandah ...
a girl opens her mouth
to spring rain | tempslibres |
surge of the wind ...
talk of war fading
into silence | tempslibres |
first kiss --
behind the bookshelf
her scent lingers | tempslibres |
blind date
cobra tattoo rising
from her cleavage | tempslibres |
summer's end
my footprints in the sand
a little deeper | tempslibres |
twilight moon --
a hole in the chestnut
fills with stars | tempslibres |
her black hair
veils our praying hands ...
hospice church at dusk | tempslibres |
offshoring jobs...
the last glow of sunset
at the horizon | tempslibres |
Brittle scent
of a summer storm
lightning's sillage | tempslibres |
sound of a moth
trapped in a paper lantern
summer rain | tempslibres |
oh blue-haired girl
your stockings and Docs make me
a little older | tempslibres |
frozen again
under soft spring snow
concrete cracks | tempslibres |
climbing
the way her work heels
hang off the steps | tempslibres |
cold autumn wind
in all the cracks
eyes of barn cats | tempslibres |
Urologist’s office-
the framed photograph
of the falls | tempslibres |
the clatter
of machines
third shift | tempslibres |
abandoned farmhouse-
autumn twilight darkest
in the empty windows | tempslibres |
"off the trail
"
"on the trail | " |
farm auction-
fields filled with goldenrods
and asters | tempslibres |
spring frost --
the park cannon aimed
at the church | tempslibres |
sunny day
a wasp tastes
everyone's beer | tempslibres |
withered roses--
a bald woman waits
for the taxi | tempslibres |
dusk--
the mason jar filled
with fireflies | tempslibres |
crashing waves-
my thoughts move
with the tide | tempslibres |
house for sale
the apricot tree in bloom
as never before | tempslibres |
northern lights
steam rises
from the coffee cup | tempslibres |
cut into his arm
a line for each day between
Christmas and New Year | tempslibres |
looking for something
in the bottom of a cup
the low autumn sun | tempslibres |
a granita before
the afternoon shift
short shadows | tempslibres |
two moons
somewhere between ports
she tells him it's over | tempslibres |
lengthening shadows
things best said
in a letter | tempslibres |
piercing stones
all along the promenade
cicadas and ringtones | tempslibres |
too hot to shop
wasps drinking from
a town fountain | tempslibres |
our parting kiss
a mixture of salt
and sweet peppers | tempslibres |
October rain
all through the night
my kidney stone | tempslibres |
the soldier looks
back over his shoulder
autumn grass | tempslibres |
half-way home
a pint of stout
to keep out the cold | tempslibres |
in from the cold
just one sugar cube more
in my coffee | tempslibres |
drawn in by the smell
of fast food and vinegar
this october sun | tempslibres |
first juice
a lone wasp explores
the apple press | tempslibres |
first buttercup
three lines of coke
on the kitchen table | tempslibres |
chrysanthamums
the homeless girl pulls
her baby closer | tempslibres |
tube ride
someone else's iPod
is playing our tune | tempslibres |
too hot to sleep
i search for my son's footprint
in the front drive | tempslibres |
working late
the sound of a small brown moth
in the lampshade | tempslibres |
hedgerow birds
three boys share a spliff
by the school gate | tempslibres |
sunshine and snow
the boys in the reserves
watch the letterbox | tempslibres |
needle exchange
sharing a breakfast drink
in Museum Square | tempslibres |
mayflowers
three small boys track down
terrorists | tempslibres |
boy's bedroom
a blackbird's nest
found deep in the lilac | tempslibres |
teeth in a glass
the nurse takes away his pot
of blue hyacinths | tempslibres |
chilled by spring winds
schoolgirls sniffing body spray
behind the gym | tempslibres |
a lost child
in a ward of iron lungs
her daffodils | tempslibres |
almost home
the full moon between
two houses | tempslibres |
afternoon tea --
the old climbing rose
somehow whiter | tempslibres |
Eucharist
pious women still weeping
for Jesus | tempslibres |
winter wonderland
even the burnt out car
looks beautiful | tempslibres |
almost Christmas ~
thinking how best to reveal
that dad beats mum | tempslibres |
circle time
she describes her mother
finding a vein | tempslibres |
sun rising
suddenly the sumac
bursts into flame | tempslibres |
the moon
not quite full
but full enough | tempslibres |
Wedding Day -
in the bride's eyes
the groom's smile | tempslibres |
imagine
a field of dandelion fluffs
before the wind | tempslibres |
midnight rain?
now every minute
"the grass | greening" |
the cold cry
of a magpie?
first light of day | tempslibres |
winter driving
almost blinded
by a sun-dog | tempslibres |
sun's rise
the voices of crows
lift it higher | tempslibres |
Canada Day
this country and I
aging together | tempslibres |
ocean playground
the way memories come and go
with the tide | tempslibres |
endless winter
more soft snow as we await
a new grandchild | tempslibres |
under snow
the same earth
waiting waiting | tempslibres |
tulips buried -
the soft silence
of April snow | tempslibres |
from Hiroshima
to Sendai . . .
so much just gone | tempslibres |
snowstorm
too many flakes
for haiku | tempslibres |
lengthening days
I turn the Christmas lights
off | tempslibres |
perseid shower
the intake of her breath...
another contraction | tempslibres |
