cherries

litter the ground

under the ladder

•

•

•

cool morning

whiffs of wood smoke

and pine cones

•

•

•

the succulents

breathe in

our conversation

•

•

•

somewhere

up the creek

this pan fell in

•

•

•

the tallest trees

in town on a ridge

by the river

•

•

•

hard orange sky

the swifts on

their circuit

•

•

•

under the willow

the thunder

muffled

•

•

•

impatient apples

hard under

your bare feet

•

•

•

green sunset

still and warm

in the dry grass

•

•

•

mingling with

the sunset

storm clouds

•
