Blazing
The chapel at Mission San Xavier del Bac, Tucson, Arizona can be seen through a wrought-iron fence.
Blazing midday sun—
the chapel bells are silent,
but one wren still sings.

Song
A photo mural in Yuma, Arizona celebrates the gift of corn.
Sunrise to sunset
we hear your song, Corn Mother,
sweeter than ripe plums.

Sky
The sky is bold and beautiful in the Sonoran Desert of Southern Arizona .
Languid afternoon—
with my fingertips I trace
the clouds on your face.

Blue Monday: Abandoned Motel
Graffiti defaces an abandoned motel north of Flagstaff, Arizona.
Graffiti mars the old hotel,
It’s feeling rather blue.
Is there some way to cheer it up?
I don’t know, do you?

deepening autumn—
the longing of broken things
to be whole again

Entrance to Robert J. Moody Demonstration Garden, Yuma, Arizona.
Crossing the footbridge,
I find a desert garden,
but no gardener.

A wounded cactus begins to heal in a Phoenix, Arizona backyard.
To all wounded things
blackbird sings a healing song—
new growth soon appears.

Summer sunrise in the Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona.
Early in the month
a door in heaven opens,
letting light spill out.

Haiku My Heart
Yavapai County, Arizona
Under ice-blue skies,
the scrub-oak-shrouded mountains
keep time with the moon.
