Today's #nationalpoetrymonth poem was written for my grandson, Eli.

For #NationalPoetryMonth.

For #nationalpoetrymonth, here's one I wrote about poisoning the carp in Little Washoe Lake, using rotenone, which makes it so they can't get oxygen from water. The carp came up out of the water, looking for air, and froze overnight. It was creepy.

For #NationalPoetryMonth. Wrote this not long after Obama was elected. I suppose I should issue a ***satire warning***

Another poem for #WorldPoetryDay, this one celebrating our much needed (here in the west) rain today.

World Poetry Day demands a poem. Context: most of our storms come in from the southwest, over the Sierra. Sometimes they push in as "backdoor" storms.

Oh, hey. In case you were wondering, THE YOU I'VE NEVER KNOWN is available in paperback! You should get one. And read it. And share it. It's inspired by scraps of my life, so important to me.

The sun (or something1) has broken through. Nothing like the high desert after a rain storm.
