senryu 09/27/10

hiding in plain sight
frustrations keep on mounting--
soon something will blow

surrounded by the mists
the sun's light cut off from view--
as Niagara roars

I want to go back and explore--
maybe never leave

Three Dog Night singing--
refrain endless in my brain--
one is loneliest

children's shrill laughter
exploding as the sun sets--
so much energy

the promise 9/22/10

not cool
exactly
but definitely
not hot
and the promise
of fall's coolness
has begun
to be made

summer's last sunset 9/21/10

the last sunset of summer
has come
in quiet splendor
ripples of heat
float up from the blacktop
as the horizon absorbs
the heavenly furnace

haiku 09/20/10

as the sun's last rays
fade lazily into darkness--
a breeze stirs up

haiku 09/19/10

full moon-pale orange
is in the rearview mirror--
just before sunrise

I Am... 9/18/10

I am...

Molly's Daddy
Sarah's hubby
Kat & Bud's godfather
Don, Noel, and Liz's teammate
my students' teacher

I am...

a parent
a reader
a teacher
an adult(?)

I am...

aging
learning
growing

I am...

tall
wide

I am...

me
