#tart

outside Bloomingdales
a tart in red---
Jingle Bell

#parrot

morning stillness---
a towel covers
the parrot cage

#squirrel

the trees are bare---
a squirrel
climbs up my shoulder

#holidays

viewing holidays
decorations---
sun rays on my pen

#taxi

a woman stole
our designated driver---
taxi!

#Black

Black Friday---
so many turkeys
at the sales

#Setter

rainy Thanksgiving Day---
a Bostonian
walks his Irish Setter

#Thanksgiving

a dog patiently
waits for his plate---
Thanksgiving Day

#olives

a bartender
needs more olives---
the bridge lights turn on

#Mouse

brisk morning---
Mickey Mouse
floats by

#sunset

a hare sinks further
in a bed of leaves---
late Autumn sunset

#grey

grey morning---
I check out a new
tanning salon

#buy

strings of lights
on bare trees---
and buy this!

#hoofs

Fifth Avenue station---
the sound of hoofs
on the pavement
