Summer bees
Inspecting
the colors

Field of red
poppies, our sandals warm
in the sun

Field of red
poppies, our faces warm
in the sun

Water lilies
float upon the pond
Gently tethered

Crowded pier
stands above the surf
Gently tethered

Steaming nostrils
sipping my tea
The submerged hippo

Highway traffic
Passing the wild
flowers

Moonlight through
the cypress branches
Fireflies

Two forks
and a spoon
Crime scene

One boy
and his pail
The ocean

One boy
and his kite
The sky

One man
and a shovel
His grave

Summer lightning
The smell of idling
boat engines

Summer lightning
Children running
to the ice cream truck

Summer lightning
Your fingers spreading
on my back

Boys casting lines
off the rocky seawall
Fish too small to keep
