Another Year

...It’s another year
And with spring
The automatic sprinklers
Once again run like clockwork
Mesmerizing in the morning 
Making me feel like an inmate
In an insane asylum 
Or old folks home
Bound...

You Can’t Take What You Can’t Give

...I’ll handle the rejection as a merit in my spirit, as I did once when I was a kid. 
The townspeople will turn all of the sprinklers on when spring has made its arrival apparent on April Fools. 
The...

In Summer

...In Summer

In summer, Jerry cans yearn to 
host toffee apple parties, man holes 
trick lost drivers, urine people 
wear funny hats 
about, pine cones get spat on by

Dog Heaven

Memories rise like reflected ghosts, wandering through the labyrinth of thoughts,

I will try not to weep of fifty-six years ago,
as I see the vision of my sibling...

Soccer

...Lisa and I had been watching some boys strut about, as they played soccer, in their little shorts, in the freezing cold. It’s an old animal story.

The game ended, or it was intermission and about ...

Elite Street

...It’s great to be a member of the global elite,
   The bean poles in my garden are standing proud and neat.
Organic veg is thriving thanks to ample bags of peat.
   I never hear a siren roaming dow...

A Hot One

...It's a hot one today.
The sky is crystal blue.
The birds take shelter from the heat.
Sun lovers today are few.

Ol' Sol beats down to see how fast,
We'll make for the nearest shade,
To sit and...

The humidity has climbed near the top,
it’s hotter’n two cats in a gunny sack.

The dog’s under the porch wit...

Out On the Veranda

...Miss the quiet so go to the porch
Drawn into its pleasure.
Awesome way to start a day.
Viewing nature's measure

Water sprinklers imitate rain. 
Man's poor substitute
Across the wa...
