1436. slow and slower

 

fifteen miles per hour
be kind and go slower
turtles will thank you 🦊❤️

I love it when a juxtaposition of things occurs to help me write my daily haiku post.  Additionally the word “juxtaposition” is a wonderful 5 syllable word that I have used many times in my haiku! Just sayin’. 🦊❤️

1435. coping

 

hot and humid day
tourists hustle and bustle
some barely rustle 🦊❤️

We love making visits to Lambertville, NJ to look at art, walk around, eat and watch people. It’s a real touristy place. I especially enjoyed watching the man in today’s photograph coping with the hot and humid weather as all of  us visitors milled around the town.  🦊❤️

1434. making things



the joy of making
simple one by twos and threes
my balcony shop 🦊❤️

My friend Lynn is a potter and she is making ceramic ear rings.  She asked me to make display racks to use at sales events that she attends. There is nothing that keeps the mind sharp like figuring out how to make something. Visit Lynn’s  Facebook page at “Hand and Wheel Pottery, LLC” 🦊❤️

1433. snagging a tree

 

tireless fisherman
cast after cast after cast
“hey! you caught a tree!” 🦊❤️

Our favorite stone bridge provided us with a new sight last evening - a fisherman in waders. We had a brief conversation with him and we quickly realized he was projecting an air of  “know it allism”.  So as not to blow his cover, we quietly left after he caught the limb of a tree that was about 20 feet above the water. 🦊❤️

1432. time

 

sitting face to face
they park themselves for a while
before time expires 🦊❤️

Yesterday I wished that I could sit down with my Grandmother and talk about all the things we never talked about… 🦊❤️ 


1431. infinity

 

this small green island
mysterious habitat
so much to ponder 🦊❤️

There are world within worlds within worlds within worlds.  Infinity is in all directions. 🦊❤️



1430. daring delivery

 

piping pizza pies
piled up precariously
free delivery 🦊❤️

The ingenuity, daring and perseverance that our local pizza joint displays to assure that customer’s pizzas are delivered hot and delicious is amazing. 🦊❤️
