Early  Girl Tomatoes

The slightest touch of color

brushed my big tomato’s cheek.

Tomatoes for my table?

There’ll be plenty by next week!

Too Much

Too many people have lost their lives.

Too many children have died.

Too many bullets have torn through flesh.

Too many mothers have cried.

Zucchini Wars

I went out early, and beat the rabbits,

despite their voracious eating habits.

I saved a zucchini for my dinner.

Zucchini Wars?  I am Today’s Winner!

Wascally Wabbits

I fin’ly “get” old  Elmer Fudd.

He hated wascally wabbits!

They’re omnipresent creatures

with rapacious eating habits.

The Morning Loop

I HATE to cross the Boulevard!

Crossing the Boulevard is HARD!

First, you have to cross, and, then,

you have to make it back again!

—–So far, so Good!

My Candle

My candle burns for all the world.

Bright hope for all to see.’

It sends out beauty to the world.

It shines for you and me.

My Prayer

Before I go to sleep each night,

I think about my day.

I wonder ‘bout the world ahead…

if Man will find a way.

I think about the things I’ve done

and what I ought to do.

And then I close my tired eyes

and pray and me and  you.

Hot July Afternoon

My garden’s still and silent.

There’s a single butterfly.

Not a bird sings out a greeting.

Not a cloud drifts gently by.
