Running by the sea
while the sun and rain play games.
I keep on breathing.

my cat’s eyes stare intently.
Then he turns away.

Amaryllis blooms

a striking red and white and

steals the show at home.

my window. They fly.

Walking through the spring,
smelling all of the blooming
flowers on the wind.

Picking up fallen
cherry blossoms so that I
can observe beauty.

The first of the month
is a time for starting fresh,
leaving behind old.
