Ash Wednesday —
cigarette butts
on the church steps

Mardi Gras —
plastic beads
on a thrift-store mannequin

end of February —
so tired
of haiku
about snow

deep winter —
I forget the name
of the brightest star

shooting star —
the dog sniffs
an empty cup

winter thaw —
autumn leaves
I never raked

starless night
the bird feeders
outside the nursing home

snow: it's not just for breakfast any more

a day in the life of a pet goat in Kenya

before	after

Groundhog Day —
the search
for matching socks
