my neighbor mows
the grassy edges
of my unkempt lawn
in the shade I try to write
this friendship poem

Death anniversary
my daughter and I place
her mom's favorite flowers
on her grave
this eighth anniversary
of her passing
her mom's favorite flowers
on her grave
this eighth anniversary
of her passing

For Betty Kaplan
end of spring
the wilted flower
in her garden
the faded echoes
of her footsteps
In memory of Betty Kaplan, a fellow haijin and poet, who passed away last month. You'll be missed!

brimmed with well-wishes

bringing Svetlana
