carousel ...
colored leaves swirl
on the swan seat

`

the ferris wheel off season   pigeons!

`

mountain hike -
the speckled stone
becomes a lizard

`

bears fishing -
sparkles of scales
        in the wind
         

`

      early autumn 
      a glint of sun bounces 
    off the tin silo

`

cold economy

the blanket factory
 folds

`

April Fools --
sending the kids to buy
elbow grease

First Place - April 2009 Shiki Kukai

`

checkpoint ...
fireflies, back and forth
through the
fence

`

heat wave --
ants in the blackberry bush
welcome the shade

`

Christmas stocking
remembering even diamonds
start as coal
 
`

boyhood friends—
side by side in trenches
still together row by row

(Arlington National Cemetery, Virginia)
