Mermaids' purses
found empty at a beach
pick pockets?

Soft breeze

a soft breeze
cools a baby's cheeks
her mom's kiss

Soldier beetle

On a blade of grass
a soldier beetle dances
unaccompanied

rain keeps a beat
on a green awning
summer symphony

After a rainfall

cascade of blossoms
from an early morning rain
cover a footpath

Wet season

Sheets of cold rain

slicing across empty fields

wet season arrives

late morning breakfast

late morning breakfast
left uneaten
too much of spring
