Renhai Reflections: Dashing By

Dashing By
A Renhai by Vaughn Seward (Solo)

A tattered flag
on the old wooden pole
flaps in the breeze.

A mouthed pinecone dashes by —
squirrel on the cedar fence.

The engineer waves
as the locomotive roars
out of the tunnel.

Renhai Reflections: A Gift

A Gift
A Renhai by Vaughn Seward (vs) & Janice Thomson (jt)

Big hugs with
tears of joy after months
of hard effort. /vs

The tiny sparrow leaves a gift — /vs
overhead a quick cloud burst. /jt

A chick hatches
on the twenty-second day
amid the feathers. /jt

Renhai Reflections: Tranquil Moments

Tranquil Moments
A Renhai by Vaughn Seward (vs) & Gillena Cox (gc)

bathtub filling —
the yellow duck bobs between
pink islands /vs

the river's swelling banks — /vs
cobalt consumes the night sky /gc

deepening sunrise —
the traffic pileup becomes
a giant snail march /gc
