A Room of My Own: Gliding Kayaks Tanka

gliding kayaks ...
ripple after ripple
overlapping
summer stars that bridge
what words never could


Added:

one tide cycle
after another and another
across the Pacific 
pulling out, returning anew ...
my heart still on the other shore


Added:

to stay or to go
I murmur to myself
again and again 
through the autumn wind 
each leaf zigzags its way down


Added:

all things must pass,
the seasons teach me this —
yet I still press
my face into her lingerie
forgotten in the basket
