About Me

My photo
I'm retired (2004), live in a Western Washington State suburb with my wife of 46 years. Was born and mostly grew up on West Coast except for 10 years in Grain Belt country. Oh, and 2 years in Cold War Germany.

From the back yard corner tree
I take a grapefruit
To the kitchen to slice
Then back to the deck to eat
Ducks mutter by the stream
Grackles shriek in the grass
Mug of coffee steams
As I read the Arizona Republic
In a decent while the ladies join me
We plan a day of
Cactus desert wildflowers
Petroglyphs quiet shrimp tequila
We express suspicious sympathy
For poor old Leo
Who had to go
To work today.
