Haiku Friday: Favorite places
I'm in Philadelphia today, giving a talk at Villanova Law School. It's an important talk, too-- my first discussion of a new type of sentencing guideline ("trailing-edge guidelines"), which I will be presenting more thoroughly in DC in March. In between, I am doing a lot of church talking-- at St. Stephens Episcopal in Edina on Feb. 6, at the humongous Fourth Presbyterian on Michigan Ave. in Chicago on Feb. 12, and on March 5 & 6 (giving the sermon!) at Holy Comforter Episcopal in Richmond, Virginia.
But right now... Philadelphia. I lived in this city for one wonderful year, when I clerked for my great mentor and friend, Jan DuBois.
Let's haiku about favorite places now... make the first line "A place I loved:" Make the second line about seven syllables, and the third line about five.
Here is mine--
A place I loved:
A town of vendors and brains;
No one pays retail.
Now it is your turn.

Vegas, the adult Disney-
Land. Hard Rock pool. Drinks.
A place I loved:
Feet dangling in the water.
Tubin' the river.

A place I love:
The Eleanor Clay Ford pool
Always clear water
How do they do it?
Are Village employees skilled?
Unlikely. Ha, ha.
It must be the place.
Lake air, blue water, sail boats
Best employment of my life.

A place I loved:
God’s Acre, rows of white stones,
as the sun rises.

A place I loved:
Philly, not Villanova
(That's in the suburbs)
A place I loved:
Geno's down in South Philly
Better steaks than Pat's
