APRIL SKY 


APRIL SKY

Afternoon lengthens.
The hawk is

racing patience
and patience wins.

SUDDEN 




Sudden
surprise,

the way
the lines

align,
the way

poems
do what

they do
and things

slap and
snap in-

to place.

Nothing but wind
to bring the sun

TAO OF PHYSICS 


TAO OF PHYSICS


In this
universe

the end of
the string

is not
the end of

anything.

SOMETIMES 
SOMETIMES

Sometimes
we learn
what it is
we need.

Sometimes
we learn
only
to forget.

It all ends here,
the same place:

gravestone,
historical marker,

silence.

AH, DEATH 


AH, DEATH


Ah, death,
you specter,

you do not
scare me.

We will be
star dust

once again,
you and I.
