sunrise at Zuma
we laughed and danced on that beach …
goodbye, Kathleen Kate

can’t write right, just now
too tired and cranky – no sleep…
need my long green nap!

the Northridge earthquake -
everyone left their houses…
strangers became friends.

woke in the middle -
rain, slowly on the increase -
missing those now gone…

midnight bright bother -
an implicit disturbance…
Turn next to the friend.

afternoon visit -
two gifts for a special friend…
It was understood.

he fought the good fight -
until he had to let go…
We will miss our friend.

sunny afternoon -
outing to white river lake…
cool, placid waters.

just can’t stay angry -
though old hurts do resurface…
they’re just bad habits.

passed on the stairwell -
if I see someone and speak…
everything is fine.
