ANNIVERSARY POEM
for Jan. 28, 2009, 48 years married

the first meeting
in a room filled with chatter
there is but one sound;
your voice alone reaches my ear
long after we say goodnight

MORE WINTER POEMS

across the yard
tree shadows jumping

Hokkku Web Page, March 2004


no appointments
the winter afternoon
fades into dusk

WINTER POEMS

the January cold-
a pile of walnut shells
found in the attic

South by Southeast, Jan. 2005


holiday season-
old recipes and traditions
kept alive;
memories to show the young
what love is
