A door, a handle
between me and all my dreams
now where's that damned key?

copper-tinged waves
trying to fit the ocean
into my camera

โ€œcopper-tinged wavesโ€ is an 8x10 mixed media collage. It's the March art for my 2026 Makino Studios calendar, and there is a greeting card version reading, โ€œtake heart.โ€ The #haiku was first published in Kingfisher.

A tanka paired with a stick drawing that looks to me like an old printerโ€™s drawer turned shadow box. 

old printer's drawer
now a shadow box
each compartment
a bit of dust
and memory

Stress test today. I hope I passed, but won't know for a couple of days. Here is a haiku from the waiting room
