On the hydrangeas

the weight of the morning sun

the evening sun


---Otsuyu


..inasmuch

inasmuch
as the rainbow
will soon fade
do not all who witness it
hold their loves more tenderly

Full circle
cheerfully butterflies playing
making it happen

pulsing cicadas
pull me into their rhythm
a hammock of sound

still pond
in the cool of the day
reflecting Eden
the old school  -
nature gobbles the playground
bindweed picks the lock
weeding dandelions  -
his white head
amongst white heads
dog biscuits
scattered over the path
slug frenzy
snapdragons
still flowering merrily
wet summer

we yearned for the
Forest of Arden but found
just an allotment
dead conifer
becomes a support for bindweed
white trumpets
portrait of a humble bee
happy embracing the rose
could be karma
crocosmia
like birds of paradise
scarlet heads
unripe cherries
already eaten by a thrush
she starts on the raspberries

red columbine

five sepals of
a red columbine –
garden candles
hammering
and the whine of brick cutters
building site curses
crow squawks
in the early morning light
cat fight
father
quiet by the gardenia...
quinceaƱera moon
a distant motorcycle
penetrated the darkness
a fox's bark
summer vacation  -
candy-floss
...clouds
summer journey
between glittering columns
of midges
dogs barking
in the early hours
catflap rattles
