Fresh
A sunflower blooms at Robert J. Moody Demonstration Garden, Yuma, Arizona.
When sunflowers bloom,
sparrows light up the garden
with fresh morning songs.

Picnic
Yuma Pioneer Cemetery, Yuma, Arizona.
Party-crashing ants
help themselves to chips and cake
at our picnic lunch.
~~ ~~ ~~
We fixed ourselves a picnic, we munched among the dead,
For it was in the graveyard that our feast was spread.
The ants came uninvited and helped themselves to cake;
Now we see that picnicking was a huge mistake!

Stage
A retired tractor lives out its last days in the tranquility of the Robert J. Moody Demonstration Garden, Yuma, Arizona.
An old green tractor
becomes a shadowy stage
for spring’s danse macabre.

Shady Place
Afternoon shadows settle in a drainage ditch in Yuma, Arizona.
In a shady place
I stop to rest and listen—
a mourning dove sings.

Garden
Tired of politics,
I seek solitude’s garden
to restore my soul.

for the long journey
nothing but a broken wheel
and a raven’s cry
