Waves crash on the bow
Dolphins leap away
The ship springs toward heaven
Scenes
From a Late Vermont Winter
A Haiku
Sequence
Red-breasted robin sings
From the frozen grass
Lilies of the valley flourish
Within their warming tent
Sap begins to drip
From maple trunk to market
Salt-lick sated deer
Peels bark from bare apple trees
Sharpening antlers
An ice-coated willow bends
Near a young poem
Who wishes to kiss the frost
