#roses
no evidence
of Spring yet—-
I buy her roses
#stillness
morning stillness—-
my neighbors
whisper
#night
March Saturday night—-
I lost another bet
on a basketball game
#blue
blue sky—-
I await
the lilacs bloom
#sunset
sunset—-
she finished planting
the eggplant
#cat
first day of Spring—-
snow flurries
the cat scratches its head
#drizzle
Spring drizzle—-
the sound of high heels
behind me
#dawn
before dawn—-
a man shouts
Google is down
#River
East River—-
a man takes off his shirt
almost Spring
#blue
blue sky—-
warm enough to play
hopscotch on the sidewalk
#moon
Saint Patrick Day—-
the moon looks
greener
#red
Saint Patrick Day—-
a Brit wants
to paint the town red
#tree
March haze—-
a leafless tree reminds me
of my neurons
#teacher
early morning—-
a teacher asks
who was Richard Nixon
