a deceased friend
taps me on the shoulder -
plum blossoms falling

Pacific shore...
I speak to the chestnut moon
in my mother tongue

red dot on her head...
My Heart Will Go On lingers
in predawn dark

even Lake Ontario holds
a wedge of snow geese

last day of summer
the warmth of a Monarch left
in her cupped hands

a line of waitresses
dancing on the table

mountaintop at dawn
a monk and spring breeze
chanting 'World Peace'
