Autumn Beauty is everywhere,
big red apples make the best pie.
Bears are watching the pretty butterfly,
while picking berries without a care.
Autumn Beauty is a colorful sight,
leaves falling in orange and red.
Pumpkins and corn are pictures in the bedspread,
autumn colors are so bright.
Autumn Beauty is bringing cooler weather,
we need to go buy a new sweater.
Great times are even better.
it is great we are all together.
liquid or dry
condiments, seas'nings
what is spicing your life
Call me on, I need to know
How it goes so far away
If you send me your hello
I’d be knowing you’re OK
Give me little reassurance
Just a sign from the unknown
That would be a great occurrence
I shall keep it to my own
If you tell me where you are
I’d be following your way
It could be you’re not too far
Maybe closer with each day..
Where must these wisps of words lie?
When these limbs are lost and tortured by the taste of touch,
Let the sky hold our voices in a ventura vortex,
I beseech the sun to undress the stars,
our twirling twinkles aren’t meant to be locked in glass jars,
Hopelessly harboring the starvation for your grunts,
If you dare, pierce the navigating needle of night
Torment the twisted thread of the moon,
Sew the silhouette of our songs into the slopes of my skin,
Sultry seamster, sway the sounds of unspeakable sins,
Deep into the hidden places where I begin,
Make a madness out of my resisting lips until they comply
Corrupt the parts I pretend to play,
“a damsel in deny.”
Don’t let the sheets speak of the heat I hide,
When the tailored tints on these thighs were stolen for a reckless joyride,
Guide my graze along the spine of your abyss,
For the ridges of your lungs left an addictive ambiance,
Venomous ventriloquist, versed to veil the vixen of the vapors.
When we were together you and me,
Our love shone out for all to see.
I knew all of you from top to toe.
I could smell you, I could feel you all day and night and in every dream,
You were there in the breeze, there in the rustling leaves of the trees,
I could see you in the clouds and in the brightest twinkling star.
But in a flash you had gone!
Disappeared with someone new.
The world went black, I was lost, I felt under attack,
I never slept, I never ate,
I resigned myself to any fate.
You were still there, everywhere,
I could see you and smell you, every bit of you that I knew so well.
In dreams I would kiss you and hold you,
Then in the morning I would realize I was just being tortured by the taste of touch.
When there’ll be no Facebook, darling
And no Google Photos too
Could we plant another garden
Under skies of acid blue?
They might regulate the clouds
Teach the sun how it should shine
And no rain would fall without
The permission of AI
But one thing they can’t rehash
Is the loving fun we spent
Saved by laughs, it’s in our ash
Scattered over sea and sand..
It all ends here
Not there here
Where? Here
Now come over here
Give it here
Your beer, not there, here
I will stand here
Drink the beer, with you here
So, you can witness me here
Drink the beer here
And tell your friends I gulped the beer here
And without fear here
We will graduate from here
Smarter since we were here
Drinking our beer here
Getting degrees here
Not there, here
How peculiar… one lonely stumble upon another lonely.
That, in itself, is really unimaginable, yet, seems possible.
A wonderful idea!! Two meet to extend the loneliness idea…
I like that!! Where are you, lonely girl??
Come to me, be lonely with me!!
Let’s both share the same loneliness, the same desires…
Be brave, don’t hold back! Find me so we can both be lonely
Together, yet still one; I will wait for you…..
Just.. come on, I’m waiting for you!!
Search more than you had done before;
Look left and right, I’m here… look furthermore!!
Let yours guide to mine;
Let your loneliness, find mine!!!

vol 7, Ondy Ready to Fly!
We whisked up a plot in a mixing bowl
A getaway scheme with a sugar soul
A cake so slick it could rock and roll
Baked for a birthday out of control
We folded in flour with a secret plan
A covert swirl only we could scan
Not a saw blade…nah…but a steel pan fan
Spinning like a rhythm in a marching band
We iced it thick with a coded glaze
Frosting that hid our exiting ways
Candles flickered like getaway rays
Lighting up paths through the maze
We sliced that cake with a rhyme made key
The layers unlocked like a mystery
Chocolate doors swung open free
We slipped out smooth as poetry
A birthday treat with a jailbreak twist
Our sweet escape wrapped in a sugar mist
A rhyme lined route we couldn’t resist
Freedom baked fresh in every tryst
Do you remember young love?
It was "Oh What A Night."
We vowed,
"Nothing Gonna Stop Us Now."
The time passed quickly,
as the many days turned into years.
Then there was nothing left to say but,
"If You Leave Don't Look Back,"
says it all.
Isn’t it really what we become together?
Separating souls, not nearly the answer.
Feathers, free falling, caught in angelic sight.
Shall we try again? We don’t learn to fly
in our youth; before we die? Try
and try again to catch ourselves. The best
is yet to be. Can we help but steady?
Are we worth it? God certainly thinks so.
Sow those seeds of love, joy and peace.
They don’t come easy. We do get hurt.
But as we heal, aren’t we stronger? We fight
for our completeness. Don’t stop short.
A broken vase, not like Humpty Dumpty,
put together again. The crevices are
those golden years. Weren’t they all grand,
not in and of themselves, but for the shining
light in the halls of heaven. The Word
of God says that a three-stranded cord
is not easily broken, therefore The Most High
must not be omitted; we cannot fly on our own.
Should time ever fail, its hands struck still,
If you thought of our life would you find peace at heart?
Would you wish for more years, would you see through blurred tears, the beauty of the road
We ne’er wished to depart?
Not always we felt the rays of the sun, but without the hard days, the joy wouldn't shine as it ought to have done.
Indeed joy is simply no task, when the small moments bring new ways to treasure you more than the last.
So check your clock, look upon its ivory face, and see that our seconds were never a waste
For should time ever fail, the sands run dry in their glass, know that even all time my love for you outlasts.
Sun Shower.
Big drops.
Fall slowly.
Glisten.

in the pause
— beauty is still,
and as moments gently move
embracing the rush . . .
the air holds a soft h u s h.
in gentle breaths
words wait to whisper—
a timeless melody we know . . .
the closeness of
forever love.
lingering in the calm
creates a longing for
a tender touch,
and— a delicate
echo
