Boston Haikai 162 -- Nothing to complain about

Under green blossoms
Nothing to complain about
How to pass time now?

Boston Haikai 161 -- Jazz from a boombox

Jazz from a boombox,
The clicks of a turn signal,
A whisper of wind
May 7 2010 -- A street corner in Somerville

Boston Haikai 160 -- Cat crosses the street

Cat crosses the street
Like it paid for whole thing -
I stop anyway

Boston Haikai 158 -- Pigeons and old men

Sunday afternoon,
Old men compete with pigeons,
For the best benches
May 7 2017 -- Cambridge St

Boston Haikai 157 -- Cormorants are back

Cormorants are back
My heart is almost ready
To feel love again
May 10 2017 -- Cormorants in the river

Boston Haikai 156 -- Refuse to write

I refuse to write
Any more poems until
These clouds go away
May 2 2017 -- Disappointing spring rain

Boston Haikai 155 -- Cormorants are back

Cormorants are back
Along with pedestrians
In heels and tight pants
