if life
fulfills its purpose
it is to know
and remember
what shaped its form
out of all
that came and went
and has remained
within

Red Umbrella
two figures emerge
shrouded in misty haze
strolling the boulevard
huddled as one
entwined in the embrace
of gossamer dreams
drifting beneath the canopy
of a red umbrella
dissolving as silhouettes
into the gray timbre
of late afternoon
with secrets only they can share
suspended in transcendent moments
echoing in footfalls
on a sodden satin way
unfolding before them

Yesterday/Today
I thought
yesterday would keep
until tomorrow
absent the sorrows
of today
whose presence
has no end
****
be patient
time has lost
its way

Rain/Water
rain falls in torrents
but the barrel
is never full
******
the pump handle
is broken
the water
in the well
has turned
to wine
but the barrel

the pump handle
