Rengay Through the Seasons by Masago & Friends

 

 

Over the Rail Rengay #6, Mid-Autumn by Vaughn Seward (CA) Her lush blond hair — first gray pulled out. Sudden gust... his toupee lifts off, over the bridge rail. We pass over, the muffler does not — railway crossing. Lake-side autumn picnic — the boom box plays hits. Roadside vendor — cobs of corn overflow onto the ground.

Grandma blinks for the fourth straight time — family portrait. A young man across the table... a speck in her eye. Vacuuming some crumbs — the tinkle of an earring. Harvest hail — mice in the wheat field head for cover.

Just-built library courtyard — Mahatma Gandhi's bronze head. A whodunit book — disguising his appearance with a judge’s wig. His peg-leg missing — the Captain orders "no rum" till someone 'fesses. Pinocchio's nose — the cricket sings a modern, pop'lar tune. Lightsaber duel: her dad as Darth Vader and his mirror image.

A battleship tattoo under a sleeve rolled-up — blood-pressure test. Fast-food server — my order taken between tongue-ring flashes. A rabbit-sized lump — the snake barely slithers. Pink popcorn — a plastic toy whistle at the box's bottom. Click here for Notes   Through The Seasons Series   Autumn—September:  1-5 Autumn October: 6-9 (This Issue)
