Flirts with the blue corn flowers
By the dusty red barn.

Stll and Heavy

Still heavy humid
A squirrel stares stunned by the heat
Waiting for the rain.

Humid Air

Humid air slows down
Life, moving like slow motion
Film, a beat behind.

Telephony

Storms steal my voice, and
Erase my e-mails. In transit
Words evaporate.

And wide, struggling to stay
Aloft and alive.

Waves

Waves rushing the shore
Beat driftwood sculptures ashore
Adorning the beach.

A Bird Skips

A bird skips from branch
To branch, climbing higher Till
She just disappears.

Rain pounds the earth like
Heavy feet dancing natures
Fast-paced polka.

Windburn

The winds wind around
Me whip new lines above my
Brow and beat my cheeks.

Mists

Mists coats the windshield
Rivulets roll down the glass
Tears for a gray day.

A Robin

From earth in his shadow while
Waiting for the worm.

A Swarm

A swarm near the gate
By the roses, rises with a buzz
And raises a ruckus.

Above the corn field swooping
In on a rabbit.

Forest Floor

Forest floor flooded
By sun, on dust and needles
Crunching under foot.

In ripples across the yard
As sun dries the grass.

In water, that stands in sagging
Stands of garden grass.

After the storm

After the storm slashes
The air ripping trees in two
Birds song fills the air.

Oval Clouds

Oval clouds rolling
Like tanks over the landscape
Leaving behind rain.

Steamy Summer

Steamy summer air
Rises to a stagnant sky, forming
Sodden clouds of rain.
