20 July 2023 (summer sky)

summer sky

a goldfinch bounces off

the window screen

19 July 2023 (summer crowds)

summer crowds

wildfire smoke mingles

with fog

18 July 2023 (springing)

springing fully grown

from the compost heap

tiger lilies

17 July 2023 (finally)

finally sunshine the full length of the dooryard snake

16 July 2023 (fogbank)

fogbank . . .

every feather

of the gull’s wing

15 July 2023 (spruces)

spruces in fog

the amplified crowing

of the doomed rooster

14 July 2023 (wharf)

goodbye at the wharf . . .

the humpback’s tail

before it goes deep

13 July 2023 (waiting)

waiting for a ride

a roadside lineup

of Queen Anne’s lace

12 July 2023 (whale-road)

whale-road

a rusted anchor stains

the beach sand

11 July 2023 (dreaming)

dreaming about

primroses and their moths

summer dark

10 July 2023 (island fog)

night fog lingering along Basho’s narrow road
