floating mall
wife
mother
homemaker
in sunshine and monsoon
be my boat my treasure stall
of rambutan and dragon fruit
of noodles and khanom krok
for fellow and foreign landers
in the Basin of Chao Phraya
station of acquaintance
spirits transforming their cloth
yet unable to mask memories
that dwell at the crossroads
of moment—
and sometimes
those of modest dress
be the fondest
with a will for immortality
Encinada
Glass Slipper of Bahía de Todos Santos
A Smile below Guadalupe grape dancers
Innkeeper of commerce and cruise ships
Master Chef of fish tacos and enchiladas
Night Owl of cervezas and mariachis
Enchantress of shop-till-you-drop’ers
Cinderella of the Peaceful Sea
Microstrobilus
Ponderosa
stricken by Beauty
to fall into the arms of Earth—
and from thy love
be born the Forest
the world of Us
Happy Fathers’ Day!
seasoning
no fallen angel
only the next dash of spice
for my mother’s feet
Happy Mothers Day
She
who bestow’d upon us
more than the gift of Life
but also her kindly Heart—
seeds sprouting
both Love and Nature’s favor
