productivity, I write
into a new day.
All nighter

Marriage
Some–like white wine–are
best when young. My French Bordeaux
grows better with age.
Knight
Stalled out. He comes. Starts
car. Buys breakfast. Drops what he’s
doing. Just for me.
Haiku of the day
Wisdom’s spark. Fortune
cookie poetry message
ignites hope change growth.
Paleo
Carbs like clouds. When gone
clarity returns. Blue sky
thinking open mind.
On a cold winter’s night
Kitchen windows fogged,
oven-baked chicken is the
scent of homecoming.
Driving cross country
West Coast starting line
pavement our road map we head
east back to our roots.
On cutting off long hair
Strands layered, length chopped,
I change, shed years, fears, regrets.
Why’d I wait so long?
Sufficient
Some days it’s enough:
an absent child’s return, a
dog’s rapt love, a kiss.
Snow blind
Spiraling flakes, like
small hands opening wide, feel
their way down to earth.
