Random Wordplay for Wednesday 4/20/16

ZipOdes!

Used in a sentence:  "In honor of National Poetry Month, a local station is encouraging that each person 'write an ode to your ZIP code', using the five digits to dictate the number of words in each line -- also known as a bunch of ZipOdes!"

In lieu of my usual companion links in triplicate, here are three poems for three important zip codes from *my* life:

17042

Lebanon
Where everyone was so full of bologna

Bomberger's, Fox's, Seltzer's, Weaver's
circa 1987

60613

I want to be on LSD again

Hugging the city, kissing the lake
Chicago
Lakeshore Drive memories 

33311

Land of sun
Kissed, Burned, Stroked
All exposures welcomed!
Re
Florida
