AUGUST 2026
Dog digging in the dirt searching for
An oracle fortune slip of paper magic numbers
There across the street is the dog you can’t see but,
You know he is there by the song around his neck.
Friendly face lazy heart apple eye,
One day I might be
That flower in the wind, or
Will I be the wind?
To be the air blowing through a window
I’m free!
MAY 2026
Leaking lemon electrolytes,
From a web-colored mug
And all I’ve got is a lizard,
Silent witness
To the fresh air
Exhaled by the leaves,
And the lavender notes
Dug up from my nails
APRIL 2026
There is a far corner of the room,
That only a paw can find.
The dog’s first thought
After she saw the ladybug,
She’s alive and she wants to go outside!
Without seeing the ladybug she had no thoughts but
Then there was the ladybug
MARCH 2026
I'm the Large Brown Egg To be coveted
Stirring from my
Hard Shell Innocence
Reaching for
My denim pocket...
A sacred grove
