Hearing bells ringing
The clock tower is booming
Time passes, singing

Please pause a moment
The sun is at his zenith
Your shadow is small

Tend to the flowers
Prune, protect and water them
Enjoy their beauty

She said she “word paints”
Syllables, her medium
Critics get brushed off

Eleven months
We just have eleven months
Christmas Eve is near

See the snow falling
Swirling, blowing, covering
Thin tree limbs will bow

Bats hang inverted
The cave is dark all day long
When night falls they fly

Cold clear and solid
Melting in my tea tumbler
soon liquid again

Hawaiian Islands
Cook called them Sandwich Islands
SPAM came much later
