Yay! Now there IS green.
And white, and pink, and even
birds. But also . . . frost.
4/12/16
There is still no green
on the trees outside my dorm.
Dude. Where are you, spring?
3/25/16
I have now started
carrying goldfish crackers
to distract the geese.
3/24/16
I think that the geese
surely have some dirt on me
the way that they stare.
3/23/16
Again with the geese
they watch me as I walk by
what are they thinking?
3/22/16
Geese outside the door,
geese outside of my window
have the upper hand.
3/21/16
Today, a snow day.
But! Then! The bright sun came out.
There is no more snow.
3/18/16
Oh little sparrow
and robin newly returned.
I hope you don't freeze.
3/17/16
Only in Boston
do they have off public school
for St. Patty's Day.
3/16/16
What is this you say?
A foot of snow is coming
our way? WTF.
3/15/16
Well, Trump didn't win!
Yet. Mostly. Okay. He did.
But not completely.
3/14/16
I hope that you know,
if Trump wins tomorrow night,
we all might be doomed.
3/11/16
Oh debates. Why don't
the Republicans just arm
wrestle or something.
3/10/16
Kid home sick again.
But! Then! There is some good news.
Can't say what just yet.
3/9/16
Seventy degrees
as well as ample sunshine
Sick kid home from school.
3/7/16
American Girl
has entered my happy home.
Well played, catalog.
3/3/16
Is it really spring
break if it is still winter,
and I have to work?
3/2/16
Oh, Massachusetts,
I thought we're better than this.
Forty-nine percent?!
3/1/16
It's Super Tuesday
Pretty please, go out and vote.
And please not for Trump.
2/29/16
Even though I have
an entire extra day
things remain undone.
2/26/16
I have just now learned
that I am able to have
cookies delivered.
2/25/16
Another debate
is on after my bedtime?
Sigh. Inconvenient.
2/24/16
I got new cough drops
they really taste like candy
but don't help my cough.
2/23/16
One might be tempted
to say that I keep Fenway
Target in business.
2/22/16
Out of anyone,
I would prefer to vote for
Josiah Bartlett.
2/18/16
The remote control
only goes missing when I
want to watch TV.
2/17/16
What is it about
bacon that makes everything
it flavors, better?
2/16/16
Though it was icy
the air is also quite warm.
Boston, dude, what gives?
2/15/16
I really should be
doing my homework right now.
Yet I'm at Starbucks.
2/14/16
Though Valentine's Day
is kind of dumb, I would be
glad to eat candy.
2/13/16
It is too cold out.
Everyone is stuck inside.
Kung Fu Panda helps.
2/12/16
The Boston Public
Library has a cafe.
It is so perfect.
It always smells like
paper and ink and sometimes
roast beef and bacon.
2/11/16
I watch far too much
of children's television.
The Odd Squad is best.
2/10/16
I don't really care
about eating meat most days.
Except when I can't.
2/9/16
It is Fat Tuesday
so I will drink the soda
for but one more day.
2/8/16
Another snow day.
What few marbles I had left
have since rolled away.
2/7/16
Oh, there's a game on?
Wait, are the Steelers playing?
Then there is no game.
2/6/16
Dear Rachel Maddow
please moderate all debates
until November.
2/5/16
It was fifty-five
yesterday. But now it's a
snow day. Heavy sigh.
2/4/16
Rain, rain, go away.
Oh, wait. This is better than
the snow. Never mind.
2/3/16
I had a new pen,
but like all the pens before
It's no longer here.
2/2/16
Punxsutawney Phil
did not see his shadow. Bless
you, little marmot.
