blue-sky chilly breeze
accentuates bare branches
with starling-shaped leaves

Doppelgänger
moonlit winter trees
bare branches paint gray shadows
ghostly risen roots
Visibility
i can see my breath
iced fog in front of my face
makes bare scenes snowy
Chillin’
winter morning chills
still, birds gather by water
and take the cold plunge
January breeze
winter morning birds
weave song through misty gray clouds
leaves add harmony
Flyby
yellow butterfly —
did your wisp fluttering wings
make this springtime breeze?
Brisk breezes
weathered winter leaves
skip and tumble down the road
racing towards the spring
Opening night
monsoon winds tell tales
lightning dances thunder sings
rain is main event
Ruffled feathers
serene spring morning
calm but for two birds brawling
uh — that’s not fighting
Phases of morning
sky becomes full dawn
towhees call out to half moon
at quarter till sun
Moonlit plum tree
the moon and plum tree
make flow’ry springtime shadows—
lovers of the night
Thunderstorm
boom rustle tip tap
tippity clink rumble crack
whoosh whish shhh fade black
It’s a dry heat streak
full moon monsoon clouds
glow pale light through windy trees
parched leaves shadow dance
