* * *
night storm
I’m thinking about
the dolls in the attic
* * *
I put an hourglass
into the palm
of the statue
* * *
too many blossoms
under the tree
after the earthquake
* * *
back from fishing
a couple of pebbles
in my pocket
* * *
white dove
in front of the church
still empty
* * *
the longest night
a raven steals the eyes
of a snowman
* * *
distant thunder
trembling trees huddled
around the house
* * *
she draws the curtains
between the winter
and me
* * *
fading moon
the dead man’s eyes
still open
