first kisses and brain freezes

Filed under: pre-06-2006 — David Giacalone @ 7:19 pm

more summer rain

an origami stork appears

on her fingertips

blackberry pie

steaming on the window sill

blue morning moon

 

first kiss

deep in the woods

sunbeams filter down

  1. dave,
    am at work. late in the shift and our
    patients have been angels. randy’s
    “blue moon” piece reminded me of one of my
    own that was roundly praised on tiny words
    a year and a half ago. thought you might like to use it in the future…

    morning moon
    the nooks and crannies
    of an english muffin

    also, this new haiku…

    bikinis…
    my eyes stinging
    from saltwater

    hope your weekend is going well. let me know how your doing.

  2. by the way, your “new paperback” piece is
    definitely publishable.

  3. dave,
    hey, that italian ice sounds great considering i just finished a four
    pepper thai noodle dish. am at work again. was looking through an old notebook today,
    and found this piece that i had written
    3 years ago after my buddy’s divorce
    was final. thought you might find it
    useful.

  4. Great play of words. I originally thought this was a post on origami, but is is actually a nicely writtin poem using the expression of an origami crane.
