from places far-flung
you come, and land feather-light
on limbs green with spring

family tragedy
whispered at fogbank's dense edge
what looms through the dark?

bright drops bead
on a frilled purple iris--
April shower

driveway drama
wild turkeys circling --
tail fans open

she visits sometimes
silently stands by my side
holds my hand and smiles
