Stench of a trash can /

left open in the alley — /

Voodoo lily blooms.

Such is motherhood.

Green berries pucker: /

kiss the sun, the rain, the soil, /

and sway in the breeze.

Three leaves

Three leaves gather rain. /

Heavy with sky, touch the ground. /

Glistening repose.

Rose’s mind

I will never know /

a rose’s mind — only /

that you planted it.

Open the packet. /

Each seed is a promise that /
