10 June 2024 (new moon)

new moon . . .

fireflies mingle

in the scent of lilacs

18 May 2024 (warm front)

warm front . . .

shaking the lilac leaves

a bird or rain

29 May 2023 (along the path)

along the path

to an old cemetery

scent of lilacs

23 May 2023 (white lilacs)

white lilacs without scent . . .

smoke from distant wildfires

dims the sun

1 June 2021 (lilacs)

southerly wind

the fog redolent

of lilacs

23 May 2021 (lilac)

lilac day moon

the scent of the breeze

off the water

3 June 2019 (lilacs)

my sister’s birthday

lilac’s fragrance stronger

after the rain

1 June 2019 (lilacs)

swifts overhead

and the scent of lilacs

all I need tonight

June 4: Blagden Preserve

Old twisted lilacs

mark where the farmhouse was.

Nearby, owls calling.

June 7: Grey area

Transfixed by the fog

slowly engulfing the lilacs

hiding the sea.

May 30: Morning fog

heavy scent of lilacs

cries of gulls, nostalgia

lifting with the fog
