#solar

bright Summer day---
viewing solar power cells
on City roofs

#cat

blue sky---
the cat plays
with a roll of tissue

#screen

Madison Square Park---
Federer playing tennis
on a big screen

#ends

a pigeon sings
but I am too sad to listen---
Summer ends

#play

August Saturday night---
no one wants to play
backgammon

#leaf

August ends---
a green leaf
twirls in the wind

#fence

arguing with my neighbor
across the fence---
a sparrow changes sides

#strawberries

the strawberries gone bad---
our Angora cat
is shedding again

#tennis

tennis rackets stick out
of shopping bags---
the US open started

#suit

a man dressed in a suit
is sock-less---
end of August

#sunset


sun shines on a mosquito
as it sets---
sitting next to a redhead

#empty

end of August---
an empty window seat
on the morning train

#bright

bright August day---
a fly in my room
refuses to leave

#milk

blue sky---
no milk
for my morning coffee
