creeping fog
a little moonlight
crosses the river 

Heron's Nest, Volume IV, Number 8: August, 2002

soft rain
a frog leaps from
one leaf to another 

Heron's Nest, Volume IV, Number 9: September, 2002

sunset –     
     white herons return      
          to the mangroves     

          evening drizzle      
     soft cooing     
on the rooftops

after the rain
     an orchestra of
          a busy street

September heat –
     the throat-song of Om
          after a long bath

letters from gulag –
the numbing emptiness of

old tarsier
     slow now with his leaves
and tango years

Taj Mahal Review, vol.10 no.1 June 2011 

evening rain . . .
     a homeless angel cradled
on a wooden cart

Taj Mahal Review, vol.10 no.1 June 2011 

hard rain –
     the crysong of a bulbul
          losing its nest

          by the ruins
     the long silence of
a broken bell

child of the quick hands
     a fruit stand
          an apple less

          last,train,out –
     listening,to,doveglion’s
comma,poems

from Bonsaic Verse, 2013
