Three weeks without rain
Rising summer temperatures
Green hillsides turn brown

2017.06.26: tracks
otherwise hidden
mailbox and blue trash bins
point to residence
2017.06.25: worship
long before sunrise
chorus of songbirds break out
first hymn on Sunday
2017.06.24: retainers
spaced along low wall
flowers posted like sentries
imposing good will
2017.06.23: impervious
above man’s threshold
while people enter and leave
dove raises new brood
Longing For Water
