The caw of old crows
reaches the boy whittling
big to small pieces.
from Frog on the Bay
Hard to be a stone
harder still to be a river
held in place by stones.
from Around the Bay
Rowing in the marsh
with every pull oarlocks squeak
minnows scatter off the bow.
from On the Dock
Into the petal
of the rose the hornet strikes
a familiar pose
