Nineteen/ days without a/ poem on Facebook, so/ I'll make up for it & post on/ my blog! (5. 19. '21)
[NOTE: Can't get Blogspot to single space, so I'm dividing poems with slashes where the lines should be. Sorry.]
HAIKU
--weekend's/ sleep-in foiled...first by the cat/ then by a crow--bargain luxury/ organic strawberries/ five bucks a quart
SENRYU
--his homework not done/ blaming me: no pencil/ in the car
--just like my mother's--/ kitchen windowsills full/ of starter plants
CINQUAIN
RETIRED! YAY!
I go/ to mail birthday/ cards and watch two yellow/ buses pass on this last school day./ I wave.
