It is time

To hear the birds,
wind,
crickets
and kids
by removing the
air conditioner
from the window.

In the lobby of Building 2 LCC.

One man holds out
an orange to another
and says
"Here, feel this."

So true.

I realize I hate
writing documentation
when I gladly interrupt
to check that all
my Windows device
drivers are up to date.
Nice Weekend

A get together
of good people, food
and lively conversation.
A drink of something
I am not sure
of the name
that contained
something called
a "mother".
A dads voice on
the phone recounting
rainy adventures.

R82: we will be meeting you later in the day
r401: as long as you are not meating us between 2 slices of bread.
R82: wocka wocka!
Tiparillo

Lets you choke off
your alveoli
and keep the
foul taste
off of your
lips!

Overheard cell phone snippet

"All you get is
a black tuber
at twice the price"

Explanations welcome.
Brain candy

Canadian sitcom
"Trailer Park Boys"
and late night
"Robot Chicken".
Sweet and delicious.
Weather is a gift

From the muggy
thunderstorm race home
last night
to
the clairvoyant bright
low humidity saunter
this morning.

Extrapolation

Prince Edward Island
where avocados fall from the sky
and bot choi grows on the
side of the road.

Slightly odd on the bike path.

A man running, pushing his bike,
only holding onto the
bike by the seat.
He stops, gets on the
bike and
pedals on his way.

2 chicks

I pass these two frequently,
we are going in opposite
direction, they are
walking so fast that if I am not
far enough along they will
reach the end of the path
and come back and lap me.
On top of that they are always
talking non stop, one always
filling in any pauses of
the other.
It is

July is the January
of the summer.

From here on out.

I will greet each day
with the words
"I am a lucky man."

Roundhouse Kick

I man passed me on a bike
with a stencil of
Chuck Norris
on the back of his tee shirt.
I imagined underneath
was written
"tears can cure cancer.....
unfortunately he never cries."

Four Dogs

German Shorthaired Pointer
between puppy and adult
springing straight up
from all 4 paws,

Tall, lank and handsome
black, brown with a white
blaze and intelligent eyes.

Chocolate Labrador being
called back in by the
name of Cocoa.

Small furry and brown
with a feathered tail
that curled up over
his back.

Throw down on the bike path.

Chattering Squirrel: "You look absurd with no fur!"
Walking Biped: "Drop the tail, get up on your
hind legs and do some work!"
Summer Solstice

Autumn has its extravagant colors,
Winter its austere beauty,
Spring its explosion of fauna and flora,
However Summer does the
heavy lifting,
providing life with full bellies,
and a chance to read at the beach.

Rick's dream

"You and I were selected for a space mission. After rigorous training and testing we were sent into space aboard the brown couch from my living room. We did experiments and spacewalks, although we were wearing normal clothes and not space suits. Any time we left the couch we needed to bring enough stuff with us that we could throw/jettison to move us around. I think we got pretty close to the sun. It gets a little fuzzy after that."

"sweet jesus, all these years I have been relying on spitting to get back to the couch!"

Photsynthicly challenged.

The rain brings
the green canopy leaning
over me as if to say
"You poor boy."
