Pale Blue [Haiku]

in the valley,
 among fields of brown & green:
  a pale blue village.

Snail Wu Wei [Haiku]

a snail dangles,
 on a leaf, in its house,
   effortlessly.

Wasps [Haiku]

a hive of wasps,
each one frenetic:
do they never rest?

Laurel Clockvine [Haiku]

sunlight glows
 from the trumpet-hole
  of laurel clockvine.

Snail & Centipede [Haiku]

in the contours
 of a stone-relief Ganesh:
  snail & centipedes.

Painted Stork [Haiku]

a gangly stork
moves swift as a dart
through the sky.

Orange & Yellow [Haiku]

blossoms
in orange & yellow
compete for attention

Evening Brown #2 [Haiku]

at dusk,
 the long-still Evening Brown
  flutters off.

Zero [Lyric Poem]

I look in the middle;
 it's the same as the 
  outside.

White space - White space,
 and no place to hide.


A peaceful patch of emptiness -
 I know this much is true:

I could turn it any way I liked,
 and not change the view.
