mountain path
star by star
the sky deepens
quieter now
than before it came
first snow
year’s end
a letter marked
return to sender
memorial garden
a favorite teacher’s
last lesson
yard sale
a fallen leaf on
her toy piano
eminent domain the mountain without us
last night’s dream
fading in the sun
blue hydrangeas
cold coffee
rain stipples
the river
bombs away in a manger
sunrise
the soft glow of
a candled egg
