sparrows chirp on windowsills
will it rain?




Day’s end, dark clouds passing by. Will it rain? No matter, sparrows go on chirping.

2096. quiet morning


standing guard
for the giant sugar maple
fire hydrant

fire hydrant
like a chameleon
in autumn

2095. heron


face off—
who will make the first move?

captured!
the heron and his shadow
chain-link fence
*
wading by the water
waiting for just the right moment…
a tasty fish



 

Standing in stillness, all the patience in the world. The great heron.
