Lady and the Tramp


Lady and the Tramp
Monumental love story
In Tony's Cafe


In Tony's Cafe
Sharing spagetti for two
Eyes meet as snouts touch


Eyes meet as snouts touch
True love has been awakened

Sweet happy endings

Bits of ME


Bits of ME

Poetry is mine
Words cascade forth from my mind
Preserve bits of ME

 
Preserve bits of ME
Don't want to be forgotten
Like I never lived


Like I never lived
Never felt cared for enough
I never mattered

 
I never mattered
Could not please people enough
Destructed ego


Destructed ego
Myself broken. Into bits
Preserve bits of ME

Walkies


This is a series based on an imaginary dog walk since I can't really
walk my little dog these days. But it is so nice to imagine.

sweater and coat on
walking in the cold brisk air
our adventure time


our adventure time
stiff breeze sends scents of autumn
nose up sniffing air

nose up sniffing air
smokey scent of burning wood
flowers in our sight

flowers in our sight
pretty purple leaves displayed
stop look walk again

stop look walk again
keys jangle as door opens
adventure ending

adventure ending
disappointment in the eyes
cookie happiness

cookie happiness
crumbs on couch and wagging tails
life is good again

Hungry Ducks


Down by the river
Napping on a plaid blanket 
Ducks quack hungrily

 

Peanuts and Cider


Picnic lunch for us
Peanuts and apple cider
Down by the river


By the River


Ducks and swans by the
River getting fed bread crumbs
Picnic lunch for us



 

Croissant


Eating a croissant
Under the Eiffel Tower
Mona Lisa smile

 

Emotions


I Wake up crying
Then get excited about
Eating a croissant

 

Free writing


Trying some off the 
cuff free haiku writing so
try to humor me

No thinking here! LOL



Nerves


I'm trying not to
jump out of my skin because
I'm not a reptile


Ativan


I tried baklava
as my ativan but it
didn't work for me

Sure tasted yummy though.

Snug?



What a weird saying
Snug as a bug in a rug
I would be screaming!





Early Bird


Early Bird gets WHAT???
I am a civilized bird.
Want breakfast in bed.


Just in case someone does not get the reference, this refers
to the old saying "The early bird gets the worm".

 

Sweet Haiku Dreams



Time to say goodnight 
Sweet Haiku dreams. Awake with
New ones tomorrow!

Online Bingo




Waste time with Bingo
Or might it just really be
Bingo meditation!


Ok, so maybe I am spending a little too much of my time
playing Bingo on my phone, but geez, it sure gets my mind
off of stuff and oh boy, there are endorphins when you win!
Yaaaayyyyy.

Scared Depressed



I thought I'd put this up here because I know one or two
of you care and want to know why I haven't been contributing
much.

Tumor markers up
even more. Dr wants scans.
Disheartened and scared.


Contrast


Winters cold whiteness
Stubborn to the very last
Yields to spring of green


Veteran's Day - In Honor of My Dad



In honor of my Dad,
my protector,
my hero.
I miss you.


Veteran's Day means
Giving thanks to all those who
Fought for our freedom



In honor of all the men and women who have given their lives
and health so that the rest of us can enjoy what we have.
