Smoke from summer fires
Flows thick down dry arroyos
Ghost of rivers lost

In my yard
Agave flowers
Lift their blooms above the trees
Reaching for the sun

First roly poly
Creeps from the thawing compost
A true sign of spring

I lost control of my scheduel again this week. We’ve been laying a new bamboo floor, and had to deal with a kitty-cat lumpectomy, too. Yes, that’s Harvey, my cover model for Glory on Mars.

humans are so strange
by Kate Rauner as inspired by Harvey, who suffered for this poem
UPDATE: For 2017 I’ve put out a new book cover for Glory on Mars. It’s more science-fiction-y (I hope) and less quirky. So Harvey can retire from his modeling career – but to tell you the truth, he doesn’t seem to care much.
Essence of the form
Buried under flesh and fur
Beauty of the bones
Here in the forests of New Mexico’s mountains, we all come across interesting bones. Everyone has a few on their porch.
