17 July 2026 (the new moon)

the new moon

clinging to the horizon

night wind

20 June 2026 (following seas)

following seas . . .

drawn-out goodbyes

on the crowded wharf

18 June 2026 (gale-whipped waves)

gale-whipped waves—

a soaring gull

careens past the wharf

30 May 2026 (a catboat)

a single catboat

tacking up the sound

wind-trimmed spruces

20 April 2026 (wind chill)

wind chill

a dream of the tropics

resolves into ospreys

11 April 2026 (burying)

burying the goldfinch . . .

leafless branches clack

with each gust

9 April 2026 (finch breeze)

finch breeze—

a neighbor’s pink sheets

flap on the line

6 April 2026 (a kinglet's song)

a kinglet’s song

lost to the wind

fairy ring

15 March 2026 (wind pushes open)

wind eases open

the rusty garden gate

first grackles

14 March 2026 (March gusts)

March gusts —

sand sifts through

a broken snail shell

23 February 2026 (all-day blizzard)

all-day blizzard

over the roar of the wind

roar of the plow
