*
long nights
of political discussions
the sun anyway
*
rocky shore
blunt tentacles of a green surf
anemone
*
spring concert
blossoms blown
from the trumpet tree
*
sheltering roots
of the old oak
box turtle dreams
*
restaurant receipts
the bitterness
of hotel coffee
*
irreconcilable differences
the black hole
between
