Autumn evening
ironing father’s only suit
I try on his warm coat.

Tugging more sea
at the end of its chain
the pleasure yacht.

Sunday afternoon
the purr of her kitten
in the dancing girl’s arms.

Wild winds
my mind measuring
the loss of sleep.

Rain-soaked mail
Laurel selects the one
hand written.

Hallway wind
a sudden slap
from father’s portrait.

Reading Wordsworth
the whole back yard
in autumn leaves.

Hot showered
the shampoo fog
dissolving her.

Sea snake
the moon follows its slither
along the beach.

My loud sigh
the cat’s stare turns
from the yard bird.
