THANKSGIVING

 

A pause like prayer,

a nod to the gods holding

the wild together.

 

 

 

 

COTYLEDONS DAY THREE

 

Three-day one-inch-rain,

warm wet dirt germinating

green hair on steep slopes.

DEJA VU HAIKU

 

1.

Gray dust clouds rising

behind cows down powdered trails

off these bare mountains.

 

2.

The diesel feed truck

awakes a bawling chorus

to claim the canyon.

 

3.

All imperative

and hungry, it twists our guts—

La Niña pending.

 

 

GRAZING GRANITE

Up here, the deer unafraid.

We freeze together

to see who melts away first.
