Let evening come: poems

Three songs at the end of summer

After the hurricane

After working long on one thing

Waking in January before dawn

Catching frogs

In the grove: the poet at ten

The pear

Christmas away from home

Taking down the tree

Dark morning: snow

Small early valentine

After the dinner party

Leaving Barbados

The blue bowl

The letter

We let the boat drift

Spring changes

Insomnia

April chores

The clearing

Work

Private beach

At the Spanish Steps in Rome

Waiting

Staying at grandma's

Church fair

A boy goes into the world

The three Susans

Learning in the first grade

At the public market museum: Charleston, South Carolina

Lines for Akhmatova

Heavy summer rain

September garden party

While we were arguing

Dry winter

On the aisle

At the winter solstice

The guest

Father and son

Three crows

Spring snow

Ice out

Going away

Now where?

Letter to Alice

After an illness, walking the dog

Wash day

Geranium

Cultural exchange

Homesick

Summer: 6:00 A.M.

Walking notes: Hamden, Connecticut

Last days

Looking at stars

At the dime store

Let evening come

With the dog at sunrise.
