garage sale day
a rainbow of gowns shines
from a wobbly rack
all that made her beautiful
blowing in the wind

Has the sky stopped winking at us yet?

guilt trip—
I sweep myself
out the door

I thought this was a green snake crossing our path at Sweetwater Wetlands but it's a sidewinder rattlesnake covered in pond algae.

#SenryuSunday #MothersDay

another birthday
another wish off Mom’s
bucket list…

cleaning out my purse
the torn mother's day card
I never sent

Gazing at meaning
Discovering platitudes
Reality’s trust

what not to wear
with roses

weekend shift;
my social batteries
running low

on your cloud?

cat kneads my stomach
surfing on jello
