poem

what are young parents

supposed to tell

their children now

when glaciers

can no longer stand it

there is no story 

about so helpful giants

available

shrubs

and this astonishing long

spider thread

haiku

the air 

has changed

summer is beaten

poem

the left stone lion

is wet from rain

and proud of it

days before

a robin told him

that rain will come

and it seems 

that this robin 

is wise

(AW, Aug 2026)

haiku

look at it

this evil drought

has its end now

haiku

heat in forecast

my body insists 

it's already fall
