Creature Daisy, a gecko and her friends

Creature Daisy's friends
lovingly bring her dinner
-- plump, juicy crickets

-- to the friends of CD!

Chile, the day after the quake

He holds high his flag
torn, soiled retrieved from rubble
out of darkness, light

flood of memories
seem to arrive each sping
with each green bud

spring frolic for Limulus polyphemus

at the water's edge
they lie -- entirely spent
horsehoe crab couples

Firebombing of Dresden

to those who where bombed
and those who did the bombing
Dresden remembers

Clinton in Haiti

In Haiti's corner
the Comeback Kid himself
he'll go the distance

for Ralph McInerny, never a doubting Thomist

Tender, strong, and true
she welcomes a beloved son
Ralph McInerny
