Outside
Outside the window /
Monsters of winter still cling. /
Dry leaves whispering.

Monday morning writing joke: “Wrong queue”
James Bond, Jason Bourne, and John Wick walked into a bar.
Two of them fell down, and then they knew they were in the wrong Q.

Haiku and photo: “Bare limbs”
Bare limbs
Bare limbs cannot catch /
The falling sun, yet they hold /
Winter’s fading grip.

Haiku and photo: “Dirty legs”
Dirty legs
Nothing brings forth Spring /
But buzzing and the hard work /
Of six dirty legs.

Poem and photo: “Covet-19 Blues”
COVET-19 Blues
The feeling that you get,
When someone you know is let
In line in front of you.
You are not a high risk dame
Or a gunsel of the same,
But it is a crime and shame, true.
You want to get the stick,
Feel the vaccine do its trick
And tell the virus, “Screw you.”
You’ve waited patiently,
A patient you don’t want to be —
It is worse than the flu.
Then this feeling you get — mean,
Some call it COVET-19,
Because a friend beat you through.
Hey, we’re of the same young age.
We ain’t old enough to be a sage—
So screw you, too.
You say it when no one’s there.
It’s a feeling that you dare not share,
This COVET-19 Blues.
