Too Much Heat

The outdoor sauna:
Planet Georgia in summer.
Let's all get naked!

On the Strand

Inspired by a post/photo by JimF and AndiF

Following the scent
Between water and water
Find spring at the point?

Flurry

Glitter in the air:
Snowflakes dancing in the sun?
Or fairies dancing?

Skyline change

Along the highway,
A needle pierces the sky:
Antenna tower.

Mind-numbing

Looking for coffee
After a presentation
To reboot my brain.

Of Male Vanity

45 degrees:
Tattooed guy in a tank top
Shows off his physique?

Wasted effort

So many haters
Who don't understand Twitter
So they must bash it.

Evening colors

Thin clouds in the west.
Sunset smears them with color:
God’s own finger paint.

Frosty morning

Heavy frost descends.
Haloes limn sunlit road signs;
Meadows painted white.

Cornfield in winter

A thin mist, sunlit
Blurs the sharp corn stalk edges.
Soft focus on death.

Political Epiphany

Even God Himself
Must struggle with False Witness
And Willful Ignorance.

Picnic

In a pecan’s shade,
A lazy groundhog reaches
For more fallen nuts.

That Skinks

A flash of movement:
Blue-tailed skink on the concrete,
Pauses — slips away.

Too soon! Too soon!

Yawning and blinking,
Students stand along the road
Waiting for the bus.

Working senryu

Back-to-back meetings:
9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Yes, Fridays can suck.

Chilly moldy senryu

Cleaning out the fridge:
The theme song to "Weird Science"
Running through my head.

Grimy senryu

I would wash the bike —
But Mrs. Fetched would insist
I wash her car, too.

Night-night

Softness on softness:
Cherry blossoms fall to sleep
On a bed of moss.

On a sidewalk

Warm southerly breeze.
A tree caresses my hair,
As I walk beneath.

Oooookayyyy

A Chinese seamstress
Said to my Daughter Dearest:
"Your boobs are heavy."
