Empty

If I could empty
myself of myself, could I 
cradle broken world?

Blue

Lobelia, blue,
lighter shade than the heron
that squawks through the air

Wildfire

The world I’ve called home –
unrecognizable now –
sun’s a tiger eye

Old Owl

Old patient has died
after years of suffering –
old owl, empty bough
