first day nerves
between the students and I
butterflies

overnight rain
everything in it’s deepest
hue

arrested mid-fall
the white agapanthus petals
in the spider’s web

summer creek crossing
I test each river rock
before I step

consulting room
she feels each death as if
it were her first
©️Sbwright2023

regret
filled with memories
the empty chair
©️sbwright2023

slow, fat drops of rain
out of nowhere the thunder
then silence
©️Sbwright2023

summer break done
all those jobs postponed
postponed again

new tanzaku
the old temple bell
remembers its voice
