#rain

April in Paris—-
the rain shower scene
is as good as in New York

#blue

Sunday morning blue sky—-
I need more
Alka-Seltzer

#night

Saturday night—-
empty bar she teaches me
to belly dance

#who?

the Obamas visit
France—-
Jackie who?

#rush

Spring thunder storm—-
she asks me
what’s the rush

#haven

finances US deficit
a haven for the rich—-
China

#house

Spring drizzle—-
a newly homeless man
views an abandoned house

#cat

morning fog—-
my neighbor can’t find
his Siamese cat

#bud

leaves bud on some trees—-
a cabbie makes
an obscene gesture


#cross

April Fool Day—-
a liar stops saying
cross my heart

#Red 2

Fargo’s Red River—-
a snow storm calls
but no flood

#Red

Fargo’s Red River* crests—-
the moon shines
on disks of ice

#skyline

Spring night lightening —-
as if the skyline
needs more illumination

#dawn

dawn—-
I take a short cut
through a full cemetery
