after rain —
the lady arranges
her fruit cart
□
slum sunset —
she adds her pitcher
to the queue
□
harvest drumbeat —
the worker grabs another
sunflower head
□
cornfield stretch —
each tractor carries
a cloud
□
receding waters —
a bullfrog jumps onto
the driver's seat
□
slice of sunrise —
the cart puller wipes
the next spoke
□
