her curved nudity hidden
in the water curtain:

love in each falling drop

Through afternoons of

Going home across moist

Another piece of the puzzle gone.

sunrise
daybreak painting a tin star
autumn leaves and stepping stones
a long goodbye amid raindrops
not a single reason for sadness
drying my tears happy endings

Myself and others
Walking in winter is a struggle
for #myself and others. Our

when snow pack thaws to fog.
Winter taunts us. Spring is

stagger and fall
the sky floods our eyes
with ocean blue
we stagger and fall
plunge into our deeps
breathe salty water like fresh air
and present each other with pearls
