Egret

perched on a guardrail
of a busy highway
an egret preems

"Noli me Tangere" -- the first Easter

Her tear-moistened eyes
look at his gentle face
no words are needed


Christ is Risen!

in memory of two heroes - Gagarin and Komarov

life everlasting
uniting two brothers
Yuri and Vladimir

Gagarin's Flight

Too young to know fear
he becomes impatient --
"let's go." -- Gagarin

Death steals a young life in Rio

Her math assignment
only with few erasures
now stained with her blood

Teilhard de Chardin

reaching for heaven
as both priest and scholar
Teilhard's convergence

Lost Umbrellas

My lost umbrella
joins all the others misplaced
by careless owners
