a book

still transported by
the intimate process of
opening a book

raindrop glue

made with raindrop glue
an accidental collage —
cherry blossoms

. . . . . . . .

The Seattle chapter of Urban Sketchers met at the UW Quad to sketch the cherry blossoms. Though it's hard to tell on this small one, on the larger image on the USk site you can see both the real cherry blossoms that the showers and wind cemented to my sketch (and covered me and the palette) and the bride down at the end of the walkway, taking a photogenic walk with her groom.

a milky kiss

clouds,
a milky kiss
clinging to the sky,

Fleeting happiness
scents the landscape of a day

. . . . . . . . .

The OED word of the day for today's erasure poem is meek.
