Spring hormones surge --
the shopgirl asks
if i have grandkids

sliver moon -
enough light to cut
toenails

late-March stroll --
meeting the neighbors'
four-month-old twins

hardboiled eggs -
the first one
peels easily

blacks ants
on the kitchen floor -
first warm day of spring

too cold
for porch swinging -
her fat dog hogs the loveseat

Saturday, March 25, 2006

the floe
flies away -
eyes water

late March --
not a lamb
in sight

undressing
the scare crow with her eyes -
late-march nap

busybody --
untangling
a neighbor's wind chime

from last year:

Spring arrives --
peeps melting
on the dashboard

surprised again --
it's spring
and it's cold

spring's first sunset -
blown away by color
and wind

snapping
the hood back on my coat -
spring arrives

night clouds bring
a trace of March snow -
no wishing stars tonight

Saints Patrick
and Christopher --
sharing a drink and a ride

March 17 --
snow 's gone
snakes are back

St. Paddy's parade --
at the curb
green and yellow snow

Thursday, March 16, 2006

II: 075

stopping
to hear the wind chimes -
which crow chose that branch?

drawing the
designated driver straw --
st. patrick's day

slipping in
through the cracked door -
fat cat and full moon

ides of march trivia here

mid-March winds -
my too-warm coat
suddenly too thin

Monday, March 13, 2006

not one pot
in the kitchen -
spring's first leaky roof

Sunday, March 12, 2006

snowless lawn -
the canine scofflaw
returns

- we don't use titles 'round here, but "Lawn & Odor"
comes to mind for this piece of doggel.

unexpectedly full --
the moon
and your smile

this year's first
coatless stroll --
winter flab

Snow Buddha --

the ides of March?

muddy footprints
across the kitchen -
spring follows us home

Tuesday, March 07, 2006

no goodnight kiss --
driving home
under a half-empty moon

Monday, March 06, 2006

that dog
barks and barks on the shore -
the ducks ignore him

early March --
the weather vane goose
heading south

Saturday, March 04, 2006

II: 063

the pink glow is gone --
another sunset
missed

II: 062

c'mon, equinox --
anxious to plant
impatiens

ducks swim across --
no one told the river
how cold it's been

II: 060

winter gale --
the crows fly farther
than the crow flies
