Rain-beaten crocus

uncovered by raking--

I'm in love with purple.

Driving rain, midnight,

the highway a black river

we struggle upstream.

Even at one a.m.

we drive out of our way

to hear spring's first frogs.

April 18: Snail found in the garden after a long winter

Raking the flower beds

I don't have the heart

to toss the lone snail.

April 17: Birthday

Caterpillar moves fast
across the sunlit driveway
because it can.

April 16: Deer crossing

New signs: Watch for Deer--

or several, short stories.

April 15: Home again

Ducks congregate at dusk.

We watch them together

from your living room.
