White Cherry Blossoms

your absence I kill the flame that inspired my poem

his wake... once again I'm left behind

new organist sounds I've never heard before coming from the choir loft the church choir singing

after my reading wow from the front row with no exclamation point

spring dance another woman cries to the same song

revising haiku how often I remind myself-- you are not a kigo

law office sign: divorce - no fee unless you win

squinting at the hotel room clock... exit sign
