Searching (five haiku)
We and the sun, high
as lords, as our frisbee, white,
whirling to my hand—
volleyball, cap/gown
cake, pavilion, dogs, friends, a
baby, relatives—
Another photo:
my grandparents and me, one
final time. Happy.
Photographs are leaves:
colorful and aged, what was,
pressed into a book.
Through my window, snow
frames cardinals, searching bare
vines for frozen grapes.
