Every day
The vast sea every
Day the sky
Half pumpkin floating
Belly up in the river
Spinning duck buffet
Hawk shape
In tree, an arrow
A tear

tip tops of
stormsurf waves backlit
light laughter
foam flows down
storm strewn beach
we walk among clouds

stars coming
out over a landscape
of scattered clouds
sun hits frost
morning steams itself
awake
raven banks
for a moment is
the sun
over the vineyard
sitting there
eyes closed I am the field
and the wind
my God-chakra
sounds
like a rainstick
after the rain
naked yoga in a meadow
diamonds everywhere
sliver moon in acres of dayblue sky
new year’s day
already
fields of mustard
moonless night
wet road light
with starshine

backlit
in late winter pasture
those horses

moonbeams in skylight
dressed like a movie set
my bedroom
posted 8-1-09?? warm wind tonight moves the deep chimes
seatide sneaks
up the river
nightwind pushes it back

sage advice
wash your windows yearly
after first rain

safe landing
now we are under the
moonlit clouds
even in los angeles
hugging clouds close
rise up snowy mountains

I want to be in the high country today
The light comes.
You can lay your eye
on the broadening valley
the haloed horses, the fence
becoming themselves, real and large
out of the dark night
posted even later that same night and getting punchy
umbrellas
left at the cafe
rain turns blue
fiddler
swings us into
the sweetest waltz
thumb warmers?
small bags for rocks? no!
baby socks!

no dessert tonight
just the smell of the passing
plum blossoms blooming
storm passes
against fresh blue skies
jet black crow

banging in
my bike basket five
poem books
who would not walk out
into this night of quiet moon
and expectation?
long way home
on a school night to see
the moony sea
on a dark
wizened almond branch
spring blossom
stopped, then started again to play with Jenn (Pam comes out of retirement:)

raucous oak
harbors a murder
of dark crows
nevermind
the chores left undone
still pink dusk
bow of bikini
at neck, gauzy sundress, walks
dirt road to river
Sabbatical – month one? – August 09
quick shadow
in the shape of a
chipmunk leaps
the sky is
the color of this
dragonfly
bald eagle
takes the short way
down the drainage
pervasive silence
then fish breaks
lake’s mirror
nothing sexier
than a man’s big hands
spreading out on the hood of his truck
a backcountry map
01? dusky river’s the color of summer’s last roses
10? moon floating there
09? a petalfull of snow
