#night

December First---
a starry
night

#smiles

White House party crashers---
they have
nice smiles

#ends

overcast skies---
a florist has poinsettias
November ends

#River

East River nice Fall day---
a speed boat stops
to view the swans

#moon

noise from a garbage truck
wakes me up---
setting harvest moon

#break

Union Square Park---
so many men alone
Thanksgiving break

#blue

blue sky---
dead leaves fly into my face
November

#cat

locked out of the house---
a cat sits in the window
from the outside

#sale

Black Friday---
aspirin is
on sale

#dinner

Thanksgiving dinner---
I don't want
the drumstick

#day

a mourning dove sings
on the fire escape---
Thanksgiving Day

#nothing

Thanksgiving---
a homeless man
has nothing to say

#fog

morning fog---
a dog leads
a blind man

#River

East River warm day---
the chef goes outside
for a smoke

#clouds

November gray clouds---
a grandma shops
for a turkey

#time

evening stillness---
a kissing couple need
more time

#school

cold morning---
girls wearing skirts
walk to school

#cheer

November cheer---
I receive a gift
of cranberry jelly

#blue

blue sky---
my upstairs neighbor
vacuums her rug

#night

Saturday night---
a long line outside
a bakery of cupcakes

#sunrise

November sunrise---
a turkey is
having breakfast

#cat

the cat watches me
eating sardines---
finally I relent

#blue

blue sky---
but not even a drop
of honey

#cat

evening fog---
a cat does not
try to hide

#cloudy

cloudy day---
a fish store decorates
for Thanksgiving

#by

passing me by---
she smiles then frowns
then laughs

#day

bright day---
red corn poppy seeds on sale
Thanksgiving nears
