trip planning —
remembering the feeling
of spreading out a map



April 14, 2025

deep comfort that comes
from leaning on each other —
bamboo in the wind



April 13, 2025

a song's final note
as long as the moon is full —
hearts opening wide



April 12, 2025

overflowing with
birdsong and blossoms —
pink moon season



April 11, 2025

rain without stopping —
I tell myself again
that the moon's still there



April 10, 2025

hoarse the next day —
I don't even remember
what I was yelling



April 09, 2025

white-throated sparrows
on their way out while catbirds
get ready to shine



April 08, 2025

no weeping here —
magnolias telling the cherries
to buck up



April 07, 2025

asleep and awake
with my back to the future —
only the past feels real
