I was so distracted
by this trendy new tie
my granddaughter got me
that I forgot my umbrella today.

Your dreams burn strong
in this modish ring of fire.

[Ferry Tales] Mr. Grape and Mrs. Strawberry

As their love ripens,

so does the world - 

Mr. Grape and Mrs. Strawberry

color the Staten Island Ferry.

subway someone

My knitted arms -
wrapped around him -
as they watch
him draw
his subway someone.

As I Lay Drying

As I lay drying
I paint this room
with secrets
of youth
and pigments
of patience.

strawberry sister

19 years have passed
since your tantrums
for strawberries
but as we share
this cherished slice
of strawberry shortcake
i see your hands
go straight
for the strawberry jam.

Happy Birthday, darling sister.

flower friends

oh

the joys
of flying back
to fabulous friends
and frenzied flowers.

with her
