Poems

We are clearing out book and boxes because we are preparing our house to be sold. One thing that was thrown my way were MudPie: Journal of Art and Literature of West Sound Academy. The 2007 publication has these poems from me:

Spring Haiku

A lake reflects impressionist trees:
purple and blue hues,
lush greens.

Cherry blossoms
flutter in the air,
clog gutters.

Autumn Trees

A round palette on the table
Paint tubes half squeezed
Daubs of colors
A bright yellow
An orange, some red
Green hues, the color of weeds
Are left forgotten
To dry and crackle
They chip and soon blow away

Recital

Silent until
played

black and white
keys

type notes of
impassioned melody

learned from a book--
Chopin and Beethoven.
