backyard bird call
Perseverance
lands on Mars
blast of solar wind
the dank of withered reeds
... .Venusian clouds
.....a biplane circles
.....the sky above me
.....the half-moon betta
.....sipping air
.....Europa’s hidden seas
cardinals at the feeder
snowfall on Pluto
Kepler’s star
the iron in my blood
blood red
3rd Place, HSA Garry Gay Rengay Award, 2021
