the water slide
circling into the deep hole
at the bottom

the girls scream
as their stomachs drop
roller coaster

family cookout
the men
mind the grill

at the cookout
I man the grill
all is lost

top quarter champion

TOP half Chamption

bottom quarter champion

on a moonlit night
mosquitos crowd
the tent screen

chicken car
lemon custard twist
with sprinkles

melting fast
in summer heat
popsicles

two giggling girls
share a stand
Fresh lemonade!

TOP half champion

CHAMPION
 

BOTTOM half champion

last bait
in the bucket
no fish yet . . .

the boat pauses
on the calm pond
the stopper disappears

putting on skis
maybe this time
I'll get up

ski tracks
waves capsize the boat

top quarter champion

BOTTOM half champion

bottom quarter champion

4th of July
a tire swings
over the pond

warm summer night
my bike rumbling in flight
toward freedom I can taste

fireworks show
I sit on a blanket
with him . . .

three couples toast
to the fireworks
the Kiss
