Five Haikus for the Final Season of Laverne and Shirley
The final season found the show moved to Burbank, and Cindy Williams departing from the cast. It was a time of reflection, reappraisal, and growth.

O Carmine! Alone…
California
Was too small for two such as

Carmine dances with hippies
1968!
Lenny and Squiggy:
California well suits
Your lifestyle choice.
No friend, no sidekick
Laverne, in her mid thirties
Contemplates the end.
