Superbowl is here,
Good excuse to overeat,
Hard not to indulge.
Some menu delights:
Buffalo wings, on’yun rings,
All kinds of chip dips.
The choices go on:
Local or imported beers.
Antacids later.

Hmph Day
Today is hump day.
Though half the week is over,
Still the same routine.
A working stiff’s wail,
Ev’ry day is a hmph day
Except for Friday.

Rose-colored glasses
Filter the mind from chaos;
They keep us going.
Breaking Good

Been taking long breaks,
Enjoying myself too much.
Back to writing soon.

A Fantastic Foray
[Day 8 – Óbidos, Alcobaça, Batalha, and Fátima]
Óbidos
Viewing from a ledge
Walled village of Óbidos
Perfect for parkour.
Alcobaça
A monastery,
Splendid Gothic monument
Houses royal tombs.
Batalha
A UNESCO site,
Another monastery
Preserved very well.
Fátima
Visions of Mary,
Catholic pilgrimage site;
Many faiths pray here.
In case you missed . . .

A Family Affair
Started as Daddy,
Now being like a mummy;
It’s all under wraps.
Is he playing dead,
Or resting from surgery?
Family secret.
Torn
Speaks like the devil
Cold, razor-sharp cutting words,
Tears you to pieces.

Worn

Like shoes with no soles
From walking for miles and miles
Home at last, but worn.
