2020. Everything is In

This season

Everything is in

Fat or thin

Short or tall

Shaggy, bald

Tight, baggy

Long or mini

Skirts and slacks

Hair blond,

Red, brown

Or black

What does it mean

When all are seen

With equal beauty

Unheard of

Outrageous

Hopefully,

It will be contagious

Observations, Life in San Francisco

2016. Clean

Lemon scent

Sharply assaulting

Your nostrils

A tingling in your eyes

A little discomfort

As your skin

Is wetted by it

Whitening agent

Disinfectant, antiseptic

Makes a house feel

Ready for guests

Observations

2015. Browlines

Eyebrows:

The latest trend in fashion,

If you believe this month's magazines,

Is to leave them more haphazard.

Yet ladies of all ages re-enact

Basic principles of beauty,

Relearned each century

By new generations.

Gentlewomen from every clime

Use gentle threads at home.

Some even fly worldwide

To best accomplish

This fine grooming.

To have the right brow line

Is sublime.

About Women

2014. A Twirl Purring

A twirl purring

Charming, furry

Warmly disarming

Softly breathing

Comfort giving

A gentle, innocent

Presence

Prompting

Us to move

Quietly

More deftly

To avoid hurting

Or disturbing

An afternoon napping

Friend

Observations

2013. Finding Direction

Sometimes

Reading

Reintroduces

Me

To a younger

Being

A person

With different

Perspectives

Almost like

A new friend

Finding Direction

2012. On Writing

Reviewing lines

Of mine

Reminds me

Who I used

To be

And lets me

Find myself

Anew

On writing

2011. Anniversary Rhyme

Happy anniversary

Honey

Our names

For each other

Would rhyme

With one another

If I dared

To reveal

Our true selves

Online

Happily Married in San Francisco
