July "onion layers"

Thanks to all the people who have contributed to "Putting Layers on the Onion"! Here are several recent contributions --

Sears Tower is tall,
tallest of all.
Soon comes a taller tower,
the Chicago spire,
a lot higher
than good old Sears Tower.


Looking out over
sandy beach.
Smiling over cinnamon sticks,
wondering when the wave will reach.
Glad to be a Chicagoan hick.


Chicago is a busy, overcrowded,
yet beautiful city. Its roots are
as old and antique as this piece of
paper looks and smells.


I enjoy going to the Lego store in the mall.



They have
good tea
in Chicago.







Remember the alewives
along the beaches? I'll
take spices any day.






Lake Michigan
I think of red & pink
the colors of sunrise
Japanese dishes
just regular
no stinky onions
