Blue Columbine

your color
is the baritone
of the garden’s chorus

Afternoon Music

song in the air
chorus of clouds
cumulus crescendo

Frog Song

rain on
peepers pond
the chorus crescendos

Sing Along

bright notes of red
the cheerful chorus
of winter’s song

Rejoicing

a hallelujah chorus
rises from the gloriosa field

Chorus

the hedgerow sings
late winter’s song
on whispering leaves

Debut

Next year’s chorus of peepers
waits and gestates in the watery wings.
