and going on and on.

The steady hammer
of a woodpecker’s beak drives
his argument home.

A warm April wind
promises warmth will linger,
but we’ve heard such guff before.

Ever thoughtful, Knox
watered the iris after
several days without rain.

leaving no room for the sun,

Tiny white flowers
huddle close to the ground
hoping to duck
the lawnmower”s blade.

Running through the yard,
three young deer suddenly stop
and look back for their mothers.
