cul-de-sac dusk
a blaze of voices
called home
*
settling matters
another pebble
into the pond
*
head-scratching
grandfather forgets
our names
*
breast stroke in bed
daughter in hospice
returns to the sea
*
garden reflection
a fallen dragonfly
on my palm
*
broken seashells
between our toes
crystal galaxies
