Sidetracked

Gooey gumdrop rain. 
Passage barred by candy canes. 
Sugar-coated train.

October

A bat flaps its wings — 
The pale ghost of a baseball
Floats up to the light.

Chasm

The Grand Canyon — 
A gopher snake winding
Across the trail.

Inspiration

Wherever it is, 
Apparently it isn’t 
Off in the distance.

The Price

Long after he’d gone, 
People heard his voice coming 
From somewhere beyond.

Yellow Submarine

Children on a bus — 
Faces peering back at us 
From behind the glass.

Headlines

Out on the back porch, 
A graying dog lifts his nose 
To the morning news.
