Poem Category: Garden Sundial

Sundial garden
vegetables and flowers
for the family table.

Sundial garden
the sound of the gate locking
behind the old dog.

Sundial garden
the lean of the wildflowers
from the winter shade.

Garden storm
winter licking
the skeletons of trees.

Sundial garden
moving handfuls of cow-dung
the bed of roses.

Cool heavens …
Orion moves into
the affairs of men.

Sundial garden
just genes sprouting
the tomatoes out.

Midday winds- –
the sand dunes sifted
to the sea.

late afternoon
uncoiling from the sundial
the garden hose

garden sundial
a crow out-shades
the creeping tree
