i.

 spring's grey moons 
 everything is still
 the hush of the skies.


ii.

 first new buds
 white cloud of hawthorn
 morning's broken ghosts.

 iii.

 strengthening sun,
 iron and feathers sky,
 bird like a speck.

 iv.

 blue edge of sky
 sunlight on flashy wings
 empty world.

 v.

 clouds of drowning white
 blowsy sweetened breeze
 tall grasses sway.

 vi.

 last winter gust,
 shadow on the earth
 song of the rain.

 vii.

 surreal morning tide
 hurrying wave
 kiss for my love.

 viii.

 sea-spray hits a sail
 anchor lowered down
 ropes thrown to shore.
