Legs And Windsocks
I run with the wind,
past a couple of windsocks.
I see they sometimes droop,
sometimes stretched full,
indicating the speed of the wind
that thrusts forward my body,
helping the tired legs
stride at the pace of the wind.
My legs seem to wear windsocks,
so, I know my running speed.

Waking up a new week
A sudden pesty reminder

Foothold on the sunMy heart sings as I walk on springs,
With foothold on the sun, unburned.
Your love fills my heart, my soul,
My whole being.
I swim in love –
I fly without wings.
Joy clings to my feet,
Gratitude fills my mouth.
So I sing, I dance in the air,
My claps echo with harmony.
Happiness knows no rival
Since you arrived with your love.
Your touch...

Buzz Cut
Sirius is approaching the gate
dragging the hot and humid like bait.
Scorching dog days are back.
A violent attack!
I fear I will burn my shaven pate!

Summer Cooking
In summer, sluggish sense of sloth he gets,
stops the lazy time, for clock’s hands he sets.
In hot kitchen he doesn’t go,
keeps whipped eggs on portico.
He snoozes in shade, sun cooks omelets.

Summer Funny Limerick
The Fourth of July is almost here,
it will be hot but will it be clear?
Fireworks made me pee my pants,
all wet but I will still dance.
Pretty colors do not run in fear....

A HEART FOR TWOLetting go was never an option
I walk between two worlds
giving pieces of myself
to both, without knowing
which one holds the real me/
With a burning heart, I swim in ice
a fire pulled in two directions
a love stretched thin
yet somehow whole.
One heart, one soul
but two names echo inside me
and strangely
each feels complete./
Some days I feel lost
not in absence
but...

Gboko Gives ChaseIn Gboko, where the dust motes dance and play,
A town, a city, a people, some would say.
What defines its spirit, a riddle, a quest,
With a gait too familiar, putting all to the test.
"Gboko!" he calls, by name, with a grin,
"Seems we're acquainted, where have you been?"
For here, familiar strangers, a curious clan,
Know each other better...

Heroics of Laziness
Oh, hail the champions of the couch potato throne,
Whose true inspiration is laziness alone!
From the depths of sloth, great inventions arise,
A tribute to those who prefer their dreams to the skies.
The remote control, a marvel of our time,
No more adjusting; we’ve reached our prime!
With just...

How Did You Care To Love Someone Like MeHow did you care to love someone like me
Whose name is burdensome for you to bear
A boy whose reputation suffers glee
And whose tomorrow uncertainties scare
How did you care to love someone like Wems
Who wants to turn you a fornicatress
Whose plans have only been to use condoms
And treats you like nothing beyond mistress
How did you care...

Dumbstruck Dumb-LuckThe soft curves of your smile,
echoing mile after mile.
Not reminiscent of a grandma,
but rather, a banana.
Your glowing doughy eyes,
look as squishy as thy thighs.
You create a fervent need,
akin to a vampire, lusting to feed.
You send my brain a-boiling,

Climbing Roses and Kitty
My kitty, Harry climbs tall red brick walls,
alarmed, I could not believe my eye balls;
while I trim roses climbing,
up, up with perfect timing,
in the garden- he leaps and never falls !...

Funny Teacher
My teacher who thought sun-bathing made her well-red,
graded me average, she was mean to the power hundred.
She was once a banker, but after some time lost interest,
wanted to be a pilot, so her career could take off for the best.
She thought to be able to fly high, could be truly uplifting,
instead she bought a boat,...
