Allergic Sneezes

spring’s young flowers
sounds of the birds
and allergic sneezes

ns

flower pedals on the ground
next to me, my dog

lb

rain showers . . .
I tilt my head back
finally free of you

fr

midnight storm
lightening flashes

ak

all the way home
the moon
in the river

rmb

man shares her picture
of her family from Mexico

ac

longing
to see them again
she starts to cry

bj

her parents’ vacation
became permanent

ap

she flies to join
tem.
Hawaiian paradise.

kf

coconuts on the beach
umbrellas and bikinis

eg

all the colors
painted in the wind
warm sand

nk

feet buried
I grab another beer

kk

headache from alcohol
reaching for bed
will the moon ever come

kr

the next morning
migraine makes me vomit

kk

chunks of bread
on the sidewalk
NOT for the birds

nk

six-year-old rebel
feeding the ducks

eg

cherry blossom fall,
covering the pond.
Quack, Quack!

kf

I pull the triggers
. . . duck hunt
