22 June 2024 (sunlit waves)

sunlit waves . . .

a child negotiates

the length of his nap

28 May 2024 (deep in a dream)

deep in a dream

of my childhood home . . .

blue damselflies

9 May 2024 (spring rain)

spring rain

a cold cup of coffee

with his off-to-work note

15 December 2023 (misreading)

misreading

the bedside clock

winter dawn

1 December 2023 (bleary moon)

bleary moon . . .

startled awake by something

running across the roof

14 September 2023 (starless)

starless night

the thumping that wakes me

my heartbeat

28 April 2023 (spring sun)

spring sun . . .

on the trail I startle

a sleeping woman

22 October 2022 (a flash)

a flash of insight

lost on waking—

Orionids

23 March 2022 (worm moon)

the niggling thoughts

that keep me awake

worm moon

17 March 2022 (moonglow)

moonglow

through the bedroom window

the river’s white noise

2 March 2022 (plow)

late winter

the snow plow scrapes away

my last dream
