the week has been deliciously busy
branches wove across the sky
there was little rain
a moon waxing
but from my belly
yes, on the side of the road!
she looked odd
grandmother maple's ochre
and garden hosta
harvested for paper
this colorful watcher
brought down for a cleaning
stitching on golden milkweed paper
one of many bundles
this, too.
paper peeled off silk
sumac fruit clinging by
furry fingers
and this: aimee's book.
i had the huge privilege
of being an early reader
and now you can buy it.
it's very, very fine.
