Friday Cooking
Very hot weather
(were talking crispy critters here)
falls
on a friday.
Convenient.
This allows me
to cook-up something
for the week-end.
Montral Summer
Not-cold,
the landscape of Montreal
is slathered in sun
and covered in green
leaves, grass.
Bikes wheel
near Lafontaine park
as their owners
pedal on snow less streets.
Children play harder
as school draws closer
wringing everything they can
out of each day.
Terraces are well used
as patrons fully take advantage
of outside freedom and sun together;
a caffeine buzz emanates from the terraces
underlying the buzz on conversation
as Montrealers enjoy summer.
Sidewalk Garden
Wet cement
waited to set
having been poured
and smoothed
to fit its sidewalk role.
You
saw opportunity
and planted
in the cement
flowers,
a sun
made of broken china.
I see whats left
the patterns
some pottery pieces
and smile
feel lighter
being surprised by are.
SUMMER FALLS
Summer falls
touching montreal
with upper 26 warmth.
Its enjoyable
this summer coating
of life.
Days covered in…
sun,
rain,
flowers,
leaves,
green,
cool breezes,
childrens laughter.
It opens the outside
to full use,
and the inside
to retreat from the heat,
and sleep,
and eating.
This expanded outside
expands me.
In winter
I pull into myself
so that the cold,
the darkness,
the piles of snow
cannot touch me.
But now
I expand
to touch fluffy clouds,
daisys,
the suns warmth,
the shade of trees,
trees leaves,
breezes,
and the sound of
crickets and frogs.
They all
soak into me
filling me with
summer.
Its hot
Its hot
theres heat
alot
around me.
And moisture
there’s humidity
saturating the air
warming me.
Cool wanted
there’s a desire for cold
all my thoughts
inside of me.
I walk
there’s a breeze
blowing by
cooling me.
I sit
there’s AC
cold temperatures
dewarming me.
I drink
there’s ice tea
freshly made
going into me.
I visit a park
there are flowers
leaking smells
that leak into me.
I breath deeply
there’s moisture filled air
as rain falls
wetting me.
I metro it
there are people
snugley fitted into cars
all around me.
I am home
there is comfortableness
my stuff
surrounding me.
