As an appliance
Does untimely quick
Fostering change

All the trials
Providing care
To your parent
Can’t be addressed
In this space

Shelled, maybe salted
Providing protein
But the comic strip
Adds humor

sherku: peanuts 2

Dimpled and curved
Cracked revealing such
Could you guess they
Make smooth butter

Hunched over
Cracking shells
These really need
To be eaten
At the ball park

I can feel
my big toe
expanding the hole
in my left sock



What is a sherku?

Hard running into
The wind today
Better when I turn
To finish with it


What is a sherku?

sherku: after Rocky

Glittens keep
my hands warm
Curling them I become
Runner Rocky Balboa

sherku: lunch

Good thing I leave
For work after she does
I can bring her the lunch
She forgot



What is a sherku?

sherku: Monday

Monday can’t be bad
I am already up
And eager to
Ride the waves

Twice good, got
Two kisses from D
As she went
Out the door

Brands, brands, brands
All over until
you look up to
the heavens

Grey sky, wet roads
Branches sugar coated
Nature shows who's
Really in charge

April 1 in New England brought some winter weather, more snow to cover the new green

sherku: hints of green

Stubble field
Hints of green
Trees starkly naked
Arms embracing
New life

Purple flag flutters
Long line autos flashing
Cause to pause
Honor those who pass
