Pavement flowers

 

I didn’t know you

though I feel the pain of death;

murder on the streets.

2018

 

It is the first day

of a brand spanking new year;

make the most of it.

Happy New Year to you all.

Colleague

 

Sanctimonious

sour-faced and miserable;

sucks the joy from life.

Reminders

 

small pockets of snow

remain in shady hollows;

there on borrowed time.

Snow

 

Table top

covered with new snow

and a leaf

since fallen

reminder of passing time

and lifetime consumed.

Ruben

 

Life’s about to change

so batton down the hatches;

puppy comes today.

Happy Christmas

.

A happy Christmas

to all who celebrate it

and to those who don’t.

A farewell

 

Thumping heart

be silent a while

let me breath

I must see

her countenance one last time

before all is lost

Antiperspirant

.

Unbelievable!

girl on the train applies mist

to her whole body

under and over her clothes;

the smell of it lingers on.

Critic

 

Unremarkable

devoid of any talent;

I’ll write about it.
