closing my eyes
to better hear hooves drumming
on the polo grounds



August 02, 2024

dolphins and surfers
breaking free of the ocean
just to dive back in


August 01, 2024

hot days stretched out
so far they can't hold their shape —
we sit stuck to the couch



July 31, 2024

four drops of rain
thrown sideways from a cloud
that kept it moving



July 30, 2024

hot summer nights —
we drive into the mountains
chasing cooler air



July 29, 2024

after-image —
most days it's the fox I see
pausing to look back



July 28, 2024

corn on the cob —
the stand at the field's edge
piled high with treasure



July 27, 2024

we move the small hill
made from last year's fallen tree
one shovel at a time



July 26, 2024

cloudy day swim —
a five year-old asks her mom
where's the sunny spot?
