​

all soul's celebration   the Godfather sews an alligator suit

​

a ticking clock at the alter   Easter lilies

​

Las Vegas night   "Time for Love" in lime green neon

​

on her Sunday hat   octopus arms around the emerald

​

snuggled in her mother's lap   again she reads Dr. Seuss

​

wishing well   old pennies and smiling kids

​

angry mosquito season   his marvel comic worth big bucks!

​

incredible hulk tattoo   on a nurse's pregnant tummy

​

airport runway   flames from the Art Arfons' dragster

​

eating mint-chocolate chip at the broken stoplight

​

Christmas stocking   gumby twisted into a pretzel shape

​

the dogwood branch   snapped by a telephone wire
