the manager's foot
on the dugout steps

    No forrow
    behind the canoe...
    only memories

    home run
    hands on hips the pitcher
    stares at the dirt

    called out on strikes
    shaking his head all the way
    back to the dugout

    Comingday of spring.
    My haiku
    Blooming with buds.

    Unhappy nests below the balcony.
    Swallows came
    and went without address.

    The late autumn
    A field on slope
    has torn its carpet.

    the suspense and anticipation are
    palpable in this piece. truly a small
    poem that says a whole lot. excellent.


    late innings
    the shortstop backpedals
    into fireflies

    game three
    all the eyes
    on his ball

    green light
    the hitter waits
    in the box

    popup
    lost in the sun
    beyond reach

    pop fly---
    playing catch
    with the sun

    pop fly---
    moonviewing
    in a field of dreams

    outside the park
    the bag lady works her glove,
    the game in her ear

    homerun fireworks,
    the Japanese batter bows deeply---
    August 6 stats

    summer waning ...
    in my daughter's eyes
    seeing mine
