small sounds from a nest
bring a smile to my face
a fresh start

sandcastle besieged
by a determined foe
hard rain on a beach
part sunblock, part sea
scent of a summer lover
as she dries herself

a poverty sijo

Slices of stale bread//bologna that mustn't be looked at too closely//
She makes sandwiches for her children//
who will eat them hungrily//
Cheating roaches of their crumbs
elevator's stuck
-- they gaze at each other
fortune favors bold

bluer than I deserved
how the light danced in your eyes
fond memories

with both feet he jumps
full-square on the puddle- splash
mom's new white dress

your green eyes light up
a lovely summer's evening
memories of home
Corpus Christi rains --
falling anywhere but here
too dry for planting
