Avocado

a capricious fruit

avocado's ripe moment

then swings to rotten

it causes disappointment

like Lucy fools Charlie Brown

(Daily Haiku Prompts: ripe, swings)

Hover: Tanka for Helicopter Pilot

 "I worship the ground 

you hover over, " I tell

my heli pilot

birthdays won't wither our hearts

love creates its own flight plan

the artist splashed a rainbow

on canvas to free her soul

Time Magician

soft guitar music

shrimp and white wine

on the patio

magenta-streaked sky

typical Key West sunset

at Mallory Square

the snake charmer

was charming but

had too much wine

need to leave now

"hurry up but walk slowly

and don't make me laugh"

impossible requests

you did two of them

but you did make me laugh

Harmony

three voices singing:

pure gold harmony in a

Brian Wilson tribute

I wanted to listen to some Carly Simon music (because I Haven't Got Time for the Pain, with my sore elbow) and came across this gem, 

In My Room, with Carly Simon, David Crosby, and Jimmy Webb.
