Peony

Crimson buds open
Revealing their clustered core
Behind our old pond

New Clothes

Not quite shaped right yet
And the label scratching me
Needs a wash or two

Kingfisher

A flash of bright blue
So fast I nearly missed it
Glad that I didn't

Cloud peaks

Cumulus rising
Fast filling the horizon
Maybe some rain soon?

Moth

Cedar sticks don't work
Still got tiny flying pests
Please don't eat my clothes

Airing out

Windows wide open
Breeze cleansing the atmosphere
Everywhere smells good

Much loved and wanted
A constant source of worry
Live is just like that

Shooting from the pond
Soon becoming tall and strong
Fresh new bullrushes

Fresh Darjeeling A
Same weight of Nilgiri

Spreading in the pond
White buds reaching the surface
Strong roots reaching down

Rainbow

Arcing across the sky
Ends touching down quite close to me
Find the pot of gold!
