the flowering crabs
pop as a tornado hits –
beauty is short lived

perhaps that black bird
at the top of the pine tree
has haiku to share

we sit and wait
watching soap and snow melt
against the windshield
.
suddenly it’s dusk
and yet it took forever
to get to this car
.
driving we see things
that aren’t ourselves -
windows lit soft orange
.
trees hang with white
so comfortably as if
they were penciled in
.
Finally people
surround us and we eat
tasting everything
.

the deep dark forest beyond -

Outside the wind whirls.
Inside my daughter asleep
in her toddler bed.
.
When will the world be
good enough for our children?
The night crashes rain.
The morning is calm.
A young Oak still holds it’s leaves
strong against winter.

the weight of wet snow — like them
I bare fresh wounds

On the way…
Sunday morning drive
wispy leafless trees pass us -
we watch quietly
.
We get there…
my child covered in
chocolate - a grandmother
scowls hard at us both
.
Our way home…
“She must be from Mass.”
I complain as we walk past
hardy Marigolds
