sherku: incredible

Struggling

With how to

Capture the

Feelings that

Rose and flowed

At "Beautiful Noise"

sherku: inspiration

life song plays

harmony in

working with

me to reveal

my body of work

sherku: self portrait

The tall man

Walks in shorts

Bag on his back

With garlic

Scapes looking

To escape

sherku: elusive

It came forward
Easily
And before
I could write
It down it
Disappeared

sherku: Invasive

Vine stretches

Up and out

Reaching for

Sunlight and

Nourishment

sherku: what day

you are old

when you know 
the day of
the week only
from your pill 
container 

sherku: Nason St trees

maple roots 

dig deep, trunk 

stretches and 

branches arch 

providing

cool shade for all

sherku: time will tell

Patience, patience;

Patience can be

Frustrating

Until one

Finally

Achieves

Sherku: That joy

Oh the simple 
Joy of finishing
The ice cream
Directly from 
The carton

Town budget limerick

There once was a budget from Franklin
Where every line was tight as a mandolin 
But wouldn't you know
People wouldn't show
Cause the finances were maudlin

In advance of the Town of Franklin budget hearings scheduled for the Town Council this week. https://www.franklinma.gov/town-budget/webforms/fy-23-budget-materials

sherku: people watching

The reaction

Of a small

Child or dog

Meeting someone

Reveals so much

sherku: sign post

Blackened metal

Sign stands blandly

Pointing nowhere

Ready for

Scrap recycling

sherku: best foot

Stop, do you
Ever think about
Which foot you
Put forward
When you start walking?

sherku: pop top

Do you ever
Think about
what finger you
Use when opening
A pop top can?

sherku: hearts of kindness

masked or not,
life on the edge
or not, let’s find 
within ourselves
hearts of kindness
