#88

Wind tearing branches
from the eucalyptus tree
like a restless child.

#87

In grip of illness,
sitting in a messy house,
poems can't be wrote.

#80

Chirping hummingbird
on hearing notes from a flute
chirps even louder still.

#78

Two cold small cats sit
in a row on the pavement
waiting for their girl.

#74

Exchanging our drinks
across a narrow table-
What else might we trade?

#72

Beneath thin high clouds
I split the firewood, and pause,
to look at the moon.

#71

Bundle of lemurs,
no blanket to wear but the
moon rising to full.

#70

Grey cat on the roof
happy looking down on you,
happy to jump off.

#69

lazy specks of dust
and strains from a violcello
rising in still air.

#68

Plum petals falling
on a plate of pickled plums
arranged as petals.

#66

With three sunny days,
the mud on the verge is dry
beneath my slippers.

#65

Oh, you reckless blooms
of cherry, plum, and apple.
You have come too early!

#64

The man in leather
prancing onstage for crowds has
fourteen grandchildren.

#63

Finding a used book
After giving up the search
is unavoidable.

#60

Red robin chirping.
Wild onions thickly growing.
Orange cat sleeping.
