Lapping the shoreline,
ocean foam filters itself—
fur-licking kitten.
Clean
Protecting
Hiding in plain sight,
lodged in every street corner—
superheroes stand.
Reach
Arms reaching outwards,
seeking decadent candy,
childish, tree branches.
Heat stroke
Shrinking in the heat,
sunflower whose time has come—
summer gardeners.
Tiny toms
My little children
growing up in their own time
cherry tomatoes
