votive candles
an old woman
dusts the saints

newspapers
blow through the car
subway morning

hammock sways
the smell of oranges
this warm afternoon

funeral day
winter deer settle
on the lawn

morning walk
a light film of ice
in the tire tracks

a leafless tree
nets the moon
campfire smell

an old footpath
winds through the meadow
tilted fenceposts

winter rain
dimples the snow
a yellow crocus

sunrise glow
through the frosted pane
my down comforter
