•

with a little water

we push back

on the prairie

•

•

•

the blue sky

darker without

the clouds

•

•

•

you remember

where you dropped

a pill or two

•

•

•

dry at their base

the saplings

tip over in the wind

•

•

•

in the twisted birch

the hens hope

to avoid the dog

•

•

•

June

stays purple

until the end

•

•

•

only the theatre

left at

the barren mall

•

•

•

mind the roses

as you chop at

the blackberries

•

•

•

most of the cats

on the asphalt

at dusk

•

•

•

a month later

the daisies

surprise me

•
