Welcome Soggy Air

Summer barges in
We saunter through the damp air
And put life on pause

Generational Clash

One defiant boy
Caused a grandmother to scold
Which made it much worse

School Shopping 2014

The scorching summer
Waits until school shopping starts
It’s a backwards year

Baseball in a Small Yard

Baseball in our yard
Changes the game just a bit
Like running up stairs

Haiku Hurdle

I had such high hopes
But my haiku was muffled
Under fuzzy words

Holly’s Birthday

Some friends creep closer
To fifty, others have crossed it
Our true selves wake up

Not yet – it’s All-Star time, but
Up here, it gets cold

Bastille Day 2014

To watch free music

Ted Talks for me to sprout thoughts
Great plan but i slept

Unscheduled Night

Our sketchy plans
Were thrown aside in disdain
We followed the trail
