more 'ku train senryu _ ....


kindling

kindling new fires
walking high wired fences
defensive of love


scarf

a ribbon of wind
tightly wound around her neck
kept out the cold


foam

frothy, flaming hot
clouds sitting atop coffee
puffy and pillowed


gyrate

she pirouettes/
politely parting sound waves/
O whirling dervish


better

relativity|
motion my light in time space|
brights' velocity|


sprout

a shoot of verdant
green peeking out from snowdrift
a shard of summer


light blue

how blue can you get |
imagining grass greener |
on the other side


codex

no chip off the old |
wood blocks split, to leaves turning |
maps of myth makers


early

I've never been
a bird who gets the worm |
wound to my own clock


more

what to do with less
when more is so appealing |
on long rainy days


relief

caved into bent bones
walls of shaken loose buildings
waiting to rise again


overcast

overshadowed
legacies of ancestral pain
a prevailing wind


simple

a teardrop rainfall
deserts remember my name
the unseen water
