Boston Haikai 40 -- Looking in windows

Looking in windows
at houses nicer than mine;
moonlit evening breeze

July 12 2016 -- A nice part of Cambridge

Boston Haikai 39 -- These things are refined

These things are refined:
Cargo shorts, mint lemonade,
Wind chimes, jaywalking.

July 13 2016 -- Brookline

Boston Haikai 38 -- Witty thoughts

Walking at sunset
Trying to have witty thoughts;
The whole sky is orange.

July 12 2016 -- East Cambridge

Boston Haikai 37 -- Zoo cookout

Weekend barbecues
In the park next to the zoo
Make jealous lions

July 4 2016 -- Franklin Park zoo

Boston Haikai 36 -- Ice cream aisle

Boxed pasta and bread;
I slow my cart as I pass
the ice cream aisle

July 7 2016 -- Star Market

Boston Haikai 35 -- Owl

Fake plastic owl
Guarding backyard tomatoes
From fake plastic mice

July 8 2016 -- Windsor St

Boston Haikai 34 -- USS Constitution

An aging soldier
Still commanding attention;
An old ship on stilts.

 July 5 2016 -- Charleston Navy Yard
