7th day of hanukkah haiku

~
tahiti sounds nice
you can always be singing
south pacific songs

next to donald trump
what more could anyone ask
haiku write themselves

larry david qvetch
humorous narcissism
neighbor of all time

small castle for two
recipe for quintuplets
palatial restaurant

no leftover fries
backyard filled with potatoes
where cows make the brie

garden tomatoes
heirloom of the king’s great grand
body of baker

toast to perfection
machine that makes your own bread
she’s still in the box

cool scotland winters
too cold for ponies to prance
Findhorn vacation

bed and breakfast inn
are we in london my love
dark day at the beach

only on outside
seventy four degree warmth
december thirteenth

bikini weather
only because you are here
miracle of heat

watermeloness
agador spartacus lines
spring in december

a natural heat
seventh day of hanukkah
find circle of luck

on the first day of christmas my true love gave to me :
baked eggplant parmesan, spaghetti and cornbrea ad dress ing, a rucksack, hugo boss pajamas and a marc chagall stained glass painting…

on the second day of christmas my true love gave to me:
too many gifts to remember , the most beautiful silver prototype heart broach in the world , and i gave him a yiddish dic tion ary…

on the third day of christmas my true love gave to me:
the fifth day at the beach of seven ty degrees, because he’s magic and this warm weather in december has never before been seen….

on the fourth day of hanukkah my true love gave to me:
a forty pound lunch , a parrot fish with blue lips,weedy sea dragons, royal blue fish with yellow fins, sharks who swim above our head with perfect teeth , pizza , a large piece of chocolate fudge guarded by fort knox and a three hundred dollar trip to the aquarium …

on the fifth day of christmas my true love gave to me:
the pearl from my mother’s ring that i lost , because he can find any thing

on the sixth day of christmas my true love said to me:
would you like me to put the kettle on
he gives me this gift eve ry day
herbal tea to hy drate me
that’s the best gift you see
cause toxic mold dehydrates me
then he carries the heavy chair, umbrella ,water and everything i need to the beach
because he’s the strongest man in the world

on the seventh day of christmas my true love gave to me:
aphrodite’s good luck ring
she threw from cypress sea
a ring just for me
traveling from a twenty year jour ney

thirteen vegetables
fourteen if you count the pumpkin pie
two gorgeous umbrellas
polo ralph lauren pajamas
and three hours at the grocery store
in a carib bean haze

`
spoonful of sugar
will help the marmite go down
most delightful way

Age of aquarium haiku

~

weedy sea dragon
swims close to see handsome face
propellers propel

another world sees
the magical charming man
understanding you

her eyes meet your eyes
across european seas
tails slide around limbs

parrot fish sailing
her blue lipstick and blue eyes
stare into your soul

shark over your head
perfect teeth devour nothing
only his dentist

knows for sure his bite
scars of red underneath fish
animal rights groups

know what they speak of
they aren’t whistling dixie
can pat the jellies

not the japanese
mushroom illuminated
lanterns of light swim

every country asks
will you please take our picture
what do we look like

frank sinatra sings
christmas songs from the fifties
jellies beat in time
