missing girl the searcher's dry cough

w. f. owen

last year's sod on her garden trowel

w. f. owen

Mother's Day her cake recipe lives on

w. f. owen

first light the dove and i scare each other

w. f. owen

from he who labels everything spring joy

w. f. owen

no matter what i do the river runs

w. f. owen

checking the blossoms every day her small hand

w. f. owen

earth day a blood blister on my hand

w. f. owen

spring moon refilling her wine from his glass

w. f. owen

even the vacant lot has flowers

w. f. owen

day moon a turtle breaks the surface

Reading of haiku notebook pages 5-7

another spring and his imperfections

w. f. owen

after the kite fight they hug
w. f. owen

first warm day the sudden turn of a koi

w. f. owen

spring chill the workers eat lunch in the sun

w. f. owen

spring equinox the necklace between her teeth

w. f. owen

spring begins the face on the coconut

w. f. owen

recession deepens i eat the bread heels

w. f. owen

parting clouds the gardener mulches
