19. Gray

rain in the springtime
sloppy gray clouds and water,
new leaves strangely green

18. Rainbow

white teeth, blue eyes, lips
as sweet as cherries, good girl
kind girl, rainbow girl

17. Blood

bike wheel wobbles, then
startled cries because of blood:
first wound on two wheels

16. Questioning

small, furry head cocked,
eyes wide open, astonished;
questioning, "why?"
