red hibiscus
the dart and swoop
of today’s hummingbird



my daughter giggles
at sparkling juice bubbles—
midnight



winter rain—
crocheting,
I miss a stitch



pre-dawn flurries—
all these Christmas trees
among the trash cans

 



crunch of snow
teaching my daughter
the chickadee’s call



new diagnosis—
avoiding frozen puddles
all the way home




lake effect—
the depth of the deer tracks
across my driveway



Father's Day
our bubbles
chase each other
