never saw a shell
swimming backwards to the sea
then three claws stretch out
carrying a conch
do crabs build sukkahs
we know they shoot fireworks
two holiday days
yesterday bottle rocket
and now red sparklers
black hawk up
circles over parting hair
unless wigs are glued tightly
either this is
a war movie or someone
is learning how to fly
zig zagging changing
directions to and fro
next red helicopter
where do you go
friday night with your boyfriend
when you are seventy
to the ferris wheel
this is what she tells me
these kids are so with it
halfway there
mr. mullet is dancing
shih tzu is kissing his toe

Very nice! That last stanza really launches the poem, 🙂 A nice image.
this is really beautiful. i like the images.
thank-you very much mamta
Are crabs Jewish? Considering they’re not kosher, it seems unlikely.
lol.. no i asked him if he had converted…
however, they are allowed to build sukkas for the red snapper & flounder.
That’s very kind of him. Helping others is a mitzvah
LOL yes he is very sweet & strong: he can carry a conch shell as large as he is…
