№ 527. Hope

 

Orange County Register

 

Life blooms. Hope claws up and out. 

From dark rotten things, 

both seek light and wait for rain.

№ 182. Two Violins

Sitting on the bench of the iconic Shakespeare & Co.,
just before the concert at the nearby church, Eglise San Julien de Pauvre,
Paris, May 2014


Two violins strain
To crack free
A sky dead shut dark.

Eye Purses, Hola Escolta, Saturday Market, July 2014

"Roots are important",
the Saint hums.
She blows a whisper

№ 173. Idiom and Some Such

You are my idiom:
Socks spooning
My orphaned toes.

You are my color:
Reds lining
My saffron dawns.

You are my nuance:
Bristles nipping
My sore nape.

№ 169. Benjamin & Bree

"The life of a good dog is like the life of a good person, only shorter and more compressed."---- Anna Quindlen, from Life with Beau, A Tale of a Dog and His Family.

True, life can be made simple.
A cold nip and lick, 
Earn vigorous strokes and love pats.

It suns. It rains. It passes.
