In the Rice Fields


                                      ... in the rice fields I still hear you singing your mother's songs 

           ... bicycle spokes turning at dusk

                                                 ... behind my house the forsythia blooms

                                            ... in an abandoned one room schoolhouse

                         ... an accordion

                                                      ... still in its case, shiny new

The Stream


                                      ... on the way to red willow pond
                                                                                                   ... in a stand of sunlit trees

                  ... I kneel / drink from a cold clear stream
   
                                                                    ..... there are days that never leave us

The Unknown


                          ... from my small window I watch ... mother and dad arguing in the headlights

          ... every breath ... a rise and fall into the unknown
