Coronadas

a new Corona 
three years after quarantine
back to wilderness
girls’ trip for spring break 
to collect our Subaru
and meet our sister
miracle arches 
connect the past and future
with hope for this life

Hold Up the Sky

your bucket list waits
for a ‘delicate’ sunset,
a breathtaking arch
your children await
at the top of a boulder
with the perfect view
a lifetime awaits
at the end of vacation
yet memories last

Shoot Photos

Heaven in Winter

Literally a Silver Lining

Cloud Surfing

As Bright As Snow

Ski Reverie

ski day reverie
filled with powder grins,
soft turns, silent flakes
always a long day
yet happiness takes its time
falling from the sky

The Scrapping-Together-Book

so different from your sister's
when i spent many joyful hours 
piecing together the photos of her youth

your youth is marred, robbed, broken
and i don't know why
i don't know why

and it might be the not knowing
that will take us both

Girls’ Weekend

post-pandemic flight
the first for me; with my girls
to steal a weekend
beautiful DC:
the center of our country,
sordid past exposed
a bar mitzvah morn
in year five-seven-eight-three
from our first beliefs
a city forest
walking distance from temple
Shabbat salom. Peace.
my happy daughters
finding books, happiness, love
on our girls’ weekend
