El Capitan

El Capitan's almost three thousand

Vertical feet of granite rock

I stand on the ledge and gaze

High above the valley

Ultimate challenge

Scaling the wall

Rock climbing

Gear and

Rope

Very Costly

What is the opposite of free?
A credit card and a shopping spree
Wrapping my car around a tree
Buying a house and losing the key

Dishonesty

Sham, fib, untruth, lie

You can't look me in the eye!

Cherries

What I really need

One wet cat

Lying on my bed

Biff saw the hive.

He took a dive.

He stayed alive.

Ugh!

A Fish Wish

 A man that I know caught some fish

He cooked and served up a dish

His wife gave a sigh

“Could you remove its eye?”

And he said, “I will do as you wish.”

Tea with me

Fish and  chips and peas

Scones and English tea

Come to London with me

For a small fee.

My View of St. Paul's Cathedral

St. Paul's Cathedral

Climbing very many stairs

Could not reach the top.

Thirty minutes till closing

Is not enough time to see.

Dandelions

Dandelions

Yellow Flowers

In my garden

Taking over

Bad Luck

Don't walk under a ladder.

Don't spill the salt.

Don't break a mirror.

Don't open an umbrella in the house.

Don't sing at the table.

Don't sleep at the table.

Don't bring home a goldfish.

Don't chase someone with a broom...

Especially on Friday the thirteenth.

A Used Spaceship Salesman...or something

There once was an alien from Mars

Who set out to look at the stars

He got much too close

His ship burned like toast

Now he’s on Neptune selling cars.

Fourth of July

The fireworks burst

Red, white, and blue stars and stripes

Decorate the streets.

A parade down our Main Street

It is Independence Day!

A Thriving Thistle

This thistle is thriving through thick and thin.

A Frozen Disaster

Betty and Bryce went out on the ice
Wearing some brand new skates.
The ice was thin and they fell in
Coming home frozen and late.

Summer Haiku

I lie in the grass
I eat a fresh, crisp apple
It is green and sour.
