new moon

lobster boats with women’s names

face into the tide

21 November 2025 (last leaves)

last leaves falling . . .

a barge slowly pushes

up the bay

22 July 2025 (morning light)

morning light

a fishing boat’s hum

shifts as it leaves the harbor

13 July 2024 (a dory adrift)

a dory adrift

in a sea of daisies

onshore breeze

5 July 2024 (roses wet with fog)

roses wet with fog . . .

a fishing boat rumbles

out of the harbor

18 August 2023 (passing)

passing downpour

a tanker’s long horn blasts

somewhere up the bay

15 June 2019 (ginko)

Joined noted haiku poet and teacher Bruce Ross et al on a ginko (group haiku outing) on Mt. Battie this fine morning. 

the wakes of boats

punctuating the bay

with hyphens

5 June 2019 (ferry)

harbor seals

neither here nor there

island crossing

May 21: Return from the island

smooth crossing
a white butterfly
four miles out to sea

October 28: Ferry ride

It’s amazing—

the human capacity

for staring out to sea.

July 19: On the lake

line-up of boat trailers

boats moving through

the mountain's shadow
