dry evening breeze—
the sound of samaras
scraping the pavement

Published in Frogpond 46:2 Spring/Summer 2023

no other world outside  
this home office 
until that blue jay’s cry

Published in Modern Haiku, issue 54.2

done showering…
middle-aged palms 
so soft, so pink

Published in Frogpond 47:1 Winter 2024

untamed field—
in the tractor’s wake
a cloud of swallows

*

waiting for the dog...
my breath cloud becomes 
galaxies

Published in Modern Haiku, issue 55.2

another spring—
still envious of the bee 
so deep in the crocus

Published in Acorn, Spring 2024

folding laundry,
chopping vegetables—
the wren’s song
