take home all your toys
say goodbye to all our friends
those we leave behind
Month: August 2021
2543
late night cricket jam
footsteps of young people
headed home
2542
crickets join
the distant moan
of a freight train
2541
three legged sack race
forty years around the track
pursued by jackals
2540
gossip in the vents
old chatterbox house
all night whispering
2539
shedding season
swept up enough
knit three more cats
2538
at my kitchen door
a little sugar, please
procession of ants
2537
cherry branches
lay scattered below
elderly limbs
2536
tasting sweet
a sparrow’s name
dark eyed junco
2535
from the beach
samurai waves his sword
five black warships
2534
birds, frogs, insects
jump at my visions edge
no one else sees them
2533
my aunt’s restroom
bits of ancient bath soaps
empty of scent
2532
a special cat treat
a box of fluttering moths
fresh from the porch light
2531
old man squints
still needs directions
bowl of oatmeal
2530
crows protest
over pizza toppings
park dumpster
2529
up down the stair lift
with the lights off
poor man’s space mountain
2528
after you go
wait for me
you’ll need someone
to scold
2527
children bickering
chickens gossiping
out of coffee again
2526
for serving water
apple cores, banana peels
deer rate me five stars
2525
my unshaven face
scary enough
make children scream
