Hallow mouth of the moon
clouds cross forming
an airy handkerchief.
Amazing how many stars
fit inside my
windowpane.
Green new leaf
fits hand perfectly---the future
lies in your palm.
All sound disappears.
The earth is calm, mild, silent....
my love has come near.
Summer evening.
Sun and moon share the sky in
perfect symmetry.
Calculating....
a fish leaps to capture
bite of heaven.
Shooting stars write
poetry across the sky.
Full moon anchored
between blue sky
and waves of clouds.
The morning mist roams
back and forth like a
voiceless wanderer.
At road’s end
the sun waits for us.
