Morning after storm


A tiny gust shakes raindrops loose from the platter leaves
of maple—high and local, just there, and then, over there, too.

Refuge


To it, my mere line, so rarely an avenue. 

Always ahead, the door.

Never entirely closed.

Paused

I will be going, says the chill rain. When the light turns, it will be Spring. 




This entry is from April 11 2016. I forgot to post it. But please note, the light did turn!

Lot's wife

I've looked back so many times. Into a blur of photographs, into an old house. Crowds of loves and selves I have not been able to bring along! How many more times will I have to leave? The present is a shore for refugees.

The articulate,

the wordless evening, 
when the far comes near 
and time walks over the earth 
like a large bright animal

Shall be released

I am saved by it each spring anew. A mighty power opens the earth to become Scilla, my asterisk,
whose footnote says, True blue.*

*It means: I will always return to you.

Box of dreams

She circled it until it erupted.

The fresh world

received by the mirror of art.

A mutual love
always in exchange.

If you would write a letter to the moon

There have always been the two of you. The light inside
is the shy friend who tries on the cape of sky. The other
is the mirror. Every word spoken between you is a loop.

Strange land

In this state, the seasons are loosely translated.

Just so

A particular morning. 
Like the first morning, plus a house. 
Oh morning, you have never failed 
the world. And today 
you are looked at from a window.

Epiphany

Mist, wind, and rain have travelled to these hills from distant places. The line that separates the heavens from the earth has almost disappeared. The firs keep pointing to the sky though there is no star.
