Soft corners
Sleeping spiders.

The solitary robin
In twos and threes!

Someone with a flashlight
Invisible.

An ant's shadow
Looming large.

The window, a small robin
Might still be alive.

Morning clouds
And spider webs.

While cutting roses back
Smacked by the new moon.

A cold meal
The next day.

A crimson sun drops its pants
Into Autumn clouds.

Through which it comes.

The Autumn leaves
In morning dew.

On the windshield.

The autumn stealing leaves!

How am I to judge
The midnight owls?
