 |
child's eyes
roll to the ball
in the shop-window |
 |
dry laundry-
the fish-pattern towel
still damp |
 |
hot evening -
his breath
the only breeze |
 |
a ladybug
on my red blouse --
almost invisible |
 |
wild wind -
my palms too small
to hold the falling leaves |
 |
braking the bus
brings me closer
to a stranger |
 |
wet street -
careful steps
over lit windows |
 |
church stairs --
in the bottle of a beggar
morning light |
 |
after the quarrel
the sound of rain fills
the emptiness between us |
 |
autumn forest --
step by step
whisper by whisper |
