The soft brown curls
Sweetly turned back
Away from images
She’ll track
As she grows older
And discovers
Mirrored reflections
Of her self
And others.

Ducky Reflections
Photo: Inbar Asif
Is the duck in the water?
Is the duck in the sky?
Is she swimming to perch
On a roof dunked nearby?
Did the house lean to water
Does the mud, garden make?
Are my eyes seeing mirrors
Is my mind still awake?

Sawatdi-kha
Photo: Na’ama Yehuda
Deep in ocean
She greets you
With palms pressed
In hello,
As you marvel
The glory
Of rocks carved
By time’s flow,
And the riches
Half-hidden
In turquoise waters
Below.
Note: “Sawatdi-kah” is the female form (said by females) of Thai greeting, often along with a “Wai” (a slight bow with palms pressed together).

Blue Ghost
Photo: Smadar Halperin-Epshtein
A blue ghost
Found its way
To the front
Of this porch.
‘Fraid of heights
It clings tight
To the spout
And flower pots.

Transition
Photo: Na’ama Yehuda
Life to hatch
Life to stall
As a change
Transforms all.
While new wings
Rise and fall,
Will it a ‘before’
Recall?

Truth’s Vine
Photo: Inbar Asif
When disparaging fails
Tests of fact
Tests of time,
It unveils petulance
As little more than
A whine.
So beware of repeating
Lies that weigh down
Truth’s vine,
For they lead not
To good spirits
But to crossing red lines.

Singular Row
Photo: Amitai Asif
In a row they
Were planted
Born from seed
To grow
Along.
Individual
They heightened,
Each one as
Singular
As a song.

Faded Charm
Photo: Philip Coons
If you’re broken by worry
Hanging by a thread
Filled with dread,
There are links
That can hold
Even the weary and old,
Who then ride
The hard time
Till restored faded charm.

Hard At Work
Original Photo: Osnat Halperin-Barlev
Climb the mountainous
Martian landscape,
Big wheels strong
In the sandbox.
Come and rescue
The poor shovel,
Buried amidst alien
Rocks.
