Some Poems
06.19.04
night rises
from the pond
in robes of rose & gold
*
bamboo shoots
under
a first crescent moon
afternoon, hwy 1
up the coast
winding cliffs of ocean
so much further on
old oak pressed back
baby at the breast
of an old cotton dress
behind the kitchen
a sign, a wood -
windows don't open
& papers fall out
the clouds or was it
something dreamed
under the steep below
- headlands fallen from the sea -
creekside rain
aside the empty,
rough-hewn benches in a row
