#1

Water is muddy

After rain

During drought

Clear

Of the Two, I much prefer

Rain.

=========================================

#2

Plastic bottle

floating among weeds

along the shore

did the rain push you or

did someone throw you in?

I will wait

for the wind

to drive you closer to shore

before I gather you up

for recycling.

===============================================

#3

Green headed mallard

circled a brown feathered mate

I thought you were drowning her

but she resurfaced, flapped her wings

and followed you into the brushes

on the eastern shore.
