A Garden of Monsters

Larry, Larry is quite scary.
How do his monsters grow?
With zombies, ghosts and werewolves,
And vampires all in a row.

Scarecrows

Scarecrows
Are supposed to
Keep crows from the cornfield
Instead they become just one more
Fence post.

Who's Jack?

Hey!

That

Pumpkin

Has two eyes

And a glowing smile

I wonder why they call him Jack.

A Visit to an Asian Market Part 1

So many kinds of

Asian Noodles

So little

Time to

Eat

Drifting Dragonflies

Dragonflies drifted down the delta.

Happy Crows

 

The crows are happy.

Today is our garbage day.

The wind blew the lids.

They are rolling down the street.

Plastic bags are emptying.

Garbage Day

A family portrait on garbage day
"I thought you took the garbage out."
"Did you take the garbage out?"
"It's your turn." "No, it's yours."
"Here's the garbage truck
Emptying cans."
"Hurry, run!"
Too late!
*sigh*

Oink oink!

What do you call an argument between pigs?

A sow row

Black Cat

Black Cat
I'm not afraid
Stalking down the hallway
Chasing the shadows in the house
My pet

Bob the Vampire

There once was a vampire named Bob
Who wanted a different job
When he came to town
He was knocked down
And chased by an angry mob.

The Hacker

The detective spied.

The lawyer pried.

The criminal lied.

Another Kind of Masterpiece

My
Auntie makes
Works of tart.

Ghost

Noisy Flight

That boy is talking

twenty-four hours a day

Does he ever sleep?

 

 

A Bright Light

That chandelier

Is crystal clear.

Frank's Monster

An unhappy creation

Wanders the country

He just wants a nap.

A Monster Meal

I did not eat the chocolate cake,
The peach cobbler I did not take.
I did not steal the cherry tart
I know not how it did depart.
I did not munch the apple pie
I do not have an alibi
Don't ask me to stand upon the scale
Or I fear I will be put in jail.

Stuff

 

Storage
Never enough
Overflowing every box
In the closets and the garage
My stuff is owning me.

Calvin the Camel

Calvin the camel carried cargo carefully.

Cackle, Cackle

Cackle, Cackle little witch

Drive your broom into the ditch.
Up above the world so high
Upon me I fear you spy.

 

City/Wilderness

City

crowded, noisy

rushing, honking, yelling

turn back the clock

walking, breathing, resting

empty, quiet

Wilderness

Greg, the One-legged Monster

There once was a monster named Greg
Who jumped on a powder keg,
And now he is missing a leg.
