#blue

blue sky---
as if one needs excuse
to go out for Sunday brunch

#moon

full moon before sunrise---
a chick walks ahead
mother

#night

October Saturday night---
no more
flip-flops

#fires

another day----
here heavy rain
fires in southern Cal

#ghost

late October fog---
a ghost
calling me names

#time

overcast morning---
my neighbor's bitch
giving me hard time

#shot

the flu shot---
my last time
mother held my hand

#spider

trick AND treat---
a spider busy weaving
late October

#flood

California wild fires
flames of hell---
Katrina's high waters

#store

at the grocery store---
a blond bombshell asks
where is the pumpkin

#sunset

dark clouds at sunset---
my neighbor
lights up his pumpkin

#cloud

as I pick an apple---
a dark cloud shaped
like a scarecrow

#warmth

late October warmth---
a witch
smiles at me

#blue

blue sky---
last night I updated
my haiku blog
