Are expected to be here within
The hour." Damian said, "with 300 plus
Relatives expected today it...

Humus me? My vegetated chokes ingest!
(jokes all in jest)

Hard to believe, I orange in a lee
started life as barely visible speck!

Just in the course of healthy growing
season, this former minute nearly
microscopic entity developed into
quite pleasing...

I leave buying food at the market to the spouse...

one helluva comparative
humdinger savvy shopper,
who can rattle off the best buy
for most any given item,
at the drop of a hat
analogous to baseball fanatic
(unlike myself who knows...

Thru an opened bedroom (albeit screened) window...

Accessible twenty four hours a day
seven days a week,
fifty two weeks a year.

Spring 2022 Curtain call at
Highland Manor Apartments unit b44
framing Mother Nature nook
ever changing scene unfolds
analogous to storybook.

I bleed with my knife in my hand

I be foolin' 'round the playground;
Had my teddy by my side.

Snot nosed, barefoot
Chanting, walk the streets
Spit flies from mouth, food on cheek

Dirty and unkempt
Unbridled and unmanageable

Torn clothes, holes in socks
Scraped knees and mud...
