a mallard swims
through our legs

the cardamom latte
singes my tongue

picking blueberries
from the kitchen floor

on the slow walk home

Modern Haiku (56:3 – Autumn 2025)

empty swing
beneath the campus oak…
spring break

tsuri-dōrō (Issue #28, July/August 2025)

the groom’s tears
as she walks the aisle
summer rain

Wales Haiku Journal (Summer 2025)

trouble parking a dream

Frogpond (Summer 2025)

empty pint glass
metabolizing
her memory

tsuri-dōrō (Issue #27, May/June 2025)

one

a
text’s
gravity
