Falls Testimony
Never ending gush—
I love this Seattle site,
So open and green.
A Falls Witness
Through no fault of mine,
Proud to be a falls witness,
Understand my awe.
Falls Memory
I remember now,
As a Snoqualmie* native,
I’m a waterfall.
*Taken in Snoqualmie, WA, while I visited Seattle last week.

Special thanks to sis,
Excellent planning the trip,
Great sights and delights!
Farewell, Switzerland,
Last days approaching quickly,
Relishing count down.

Lingering Memories of Lausanne
Celebrate yourself,
Accept your significance,
For you are worthy.
Regardless of fate,
You make your own happiness;
It comes from within.
A purposeful life
Is to always be present.
Find joy in small things.
Opening Spring Fling in Florida – Part 3 of 3
South of Jacksonville,
Northeast coast of Florida
Sits St. Augustine.
Colonized by Spain,
Oldest city in U.S.,
Briefly British ruled.
Flagler spurred its growth,
Menendez spread religion;
Their legacy shows.
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.
Planned to make bánh mi,
But too many substitutes
No bánh mi for me.
Just a stacked sandwich,
So ban me for no bánh mi,
Though not a bad sub.
I had no baguette,
I used pain de campagne,
A pseudo-bánh mi.
My bánh mi wannabe ingredients for this classic Vietnamese sandwich:
Solve a problem now?
Late afternoon humdinger
Just before closing.
5 ‘til 5 P.M.,
Weekend about to begin;
Leave it for Monday.
Why am I still here?
Should have left right after lunch;
I woke up too late.
