Writing in Snow

Windy Day in Vegas

It's a windy Sunday in Vegas
allergies are kicking in
with sneezing,
stuffed up nose
and coughing.

The wind scared me this morning. There is a sign hanging outside the kitchen window and the wind was blowing so hard that the sign hit against the side of the building. I couldn't figure out what it was until I opened the blinds. The wind has died down a bit, but it's still too windy to walk. My allergies are acting up now and if I take a walk they will be worse. I think I need a tread mill to use on these windy days.

Sleepy eyes closing
Is is wind or allergies
causing me to nod?

I did some port housekeeping last night. I put some poem into "Poetry in Motion Poems" . At this point I have 50 poems in it and I can place 50 more. I putting form poems in it, but there isn't any specific theme for that book. I'm also planning on filling up the short story collection "Flashes of Lightning" . I have 98 short stories with room for 2 more. There isn't a specific theme for that book either.

My fingers
don't want to type,
don't want to spell the word right.

The wind has blown all day. It blew hard enough to take limbs off the palm trees. It also knocked the electricity off once. There is now a high wind warning until 10:00 PM. I think I'll need to put on the flannel nightgown or pjs tonight. In addition I'll have to use the blanket that was just washed. Oh well, we can always wash the blanket again next month.

Wind
Trimming palm trees
Cuts electricity
