Everything's hopping--
caterpillar thaws, cruises
over bare, brown lawn.

February 28: Windows to the soul

Dog seen on our walk
looked at me with eyes
of a reincarnated soul.

February 27: Weskeag Marsh

Salt marsh at sunset--
all calm except scudding clouds,
parked car's thumping bass.

February 26: Premature

Bright new shoots of chives--
don't get too aroused,
it's only February.

February 25: Thunder

five years old again
awakened by thunder claps
and still wide awake

February 24: Drink the rain

Something about the weather
makes us think about
drinking wine with lunch.

February 23: Predator and prey

Cat eats some of my
goldfish crackers.
Julia Child loved them too.
