Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, Southern California
They tell the story
of how, on distant mountains,
one dove left her song.

Distant
Peering through a palo verde tree, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
Winter afternoon—
so distant are the mountains
I cannot see them.

On the shore of Upper Lake Mary, Coconino National Forest, Arizona

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

Lovers of small words and small poems usually gather each Friday at Recuerda Mi Corazon to share their haiku. Because Rebecca is in San Miguel de Allende today and next Friday, this will be our gathering place. Welcome!
