Sandwiches

 

Summer in full swing;

office workers lunch in parks

and pigeons look on.

As the cool ink flows

memories flood back of old

carved wooden school desks.

Deception

 

Paradise island

not all it appears to be;

no food, no nothing.

Relief

 

Cool damp air surrounds

my melancholic humor

offering relief.

Summer interrupted (for a day)

 

Let the sun shine in

or at least a cloudy sky;

break in dry weather.

Observation

 

You can’t hide from me

I have naturalist’s eyes

I see living things.

Parched

 

Long dry Summer days

sucking moisture from the earth;

new cracks in the lawn.

Bee bar

 

Buzzing honey bees

guzzle fresh sweet nectar from

marjoram flowers.

Proud

 

Compassionate act;

my boy selfless in support

of one who needs help.

Little big

 

Little Jenny wren

sings her heart out; doing so

she makes mine sing too.
