Christmas lights

Like flickering tongues
of flame in green…blue…red. Just
plug in and enjoy.

Picking Christmas trees

Like speed dating, if
they make a good impression,
they come home with us.

Survivor – Family Holidays

Two tribes – In-laws and
Parents – force you to over-
eat, then watch TV.

Thrill of the kill

Urban mall jungle.
Shoppers prowl for deals, fangs bared,
credit cards dripping.

Weight watchers

On weigh-in day I’d
inhale helium if it
would make me lighter.

Bonnie’s haikus

Small delicate word
studies
of a larger life
viewed by an artist.

Improv Olympics

They create out of
nothing whole scenes, entertain
from mere suggestions.

Chicago

The Windy City
carries aloft a million
dreams on fierce updrafts.

Traveling with S

She takes such care of
me, reads maps, keeps track of things.
A good friend, and more

Front seat driver

Off to NYC
tomorrow. Garmin riding
shotgun. Can’t get lost.
