Poem Category: Garden Sundial

Garden sundial
where butterflies mate
in silent flutters.

Sundial garden
the silent magpie
hearing the worm turn.

Garden
gathered at the sundial
shadows that die.

Sundial garden
after the cat fight
she sweeps the loose gravel.

Garden sundial
branch by branch
the slivers of day.

Garden sundial
to the far cry
of gypsy geese.

Past the sundial
into the lemon tree
winter’s loud wind.

The spider’s dash to the fly
then losing it–
sundial garden.

Sundial
the white summer cloud
measuring an hour across.

Sundial garden
the owl hoots
the cat away.
