USA
dock spiders
an array of webs grace
the boat rails
each pattern collecting
droplets of ocean dew
signs of new life
sequestered way down deep
in the woodpile
with a roof over their heads-
the chipmunk and her babies
from a planter
outside the vet’s office
I pinched some dirt
one more old soul added
to our family urn
O to summate
my inspirations
on the river
a mother goose leads
six downy goslings
hungry voices
of nestling swallows waft
from the cliffs
beaks eager to be fed
and parenting begins
live and love
for every moment
hereafter
is as fleeting as
seawater bubbles
