My Query as Found to be Airy
I have always been a bit wary
of Gary, Mary, Sherry and Larry
They each seem a little bit contrary
Fighting over blue, straw, or raspberry
I took this to Carrie, our head faerie
She thought my query was a tad bit airy
Looked it up in her faerie dictionary
Experts’ opinions appeared to vary
Enter an expert from a local dairy
his name

When - Airy Pythons
When youre foiled first time
ply the sirens
on empathetic emergencies
your pain first dawned
like the culling of a bird
When Lions escape from their pit
wearisome statistians ponder
on the risk analysis for folk
When Pythons spoil your sleep
Slip your dreams
in airy onion bags
lunatic like
apron strings
when things go wrong

Airy and Emmett Street
Airy Wells and Emmett Street were working class kids,
Just shy of a high school diploma.
Airy’s mom had a habit of drinking too much.
Emmett’s father was fighting lymphoma.
Airy and Emmett had jobs after school,
And mostly just kept out of trouble.
While Airy stocked shelves at the dollar store,
Emmett worked with a pick and a shovel.
Airy and Emmett

Airy Instrument Inking - Day 10
fiery face felony
bursting bounty blitzkrieg
hoisted feelings foster
per punctured prayer
squashed emotions smeared
oceanic pelvic peered
airy instrument inking
pulpy parts bleeding
callous concerto cussing
lusty lips picked
leering lyrics cupped -
bleeding blur blush
mystic melody moans
mushy maiden's fault.

Tinselry
Varying tactics to deftest tongues,
I find it a futile taxing of tired lungs;
She hears finer tropes with disdain,
And loves lips that deal daring pain.
For fibs she sworn truths exchanged;
At once dazzled by such fiddly verbs
As paint fabled shades of gilded gold,
And cozy castles agleam in airy hubs.
When I say our

Fairies
The
Fairies
Subterfuge
Watching humans

You
Won’t see
Them for they
Elemental’s

The
Fairies,
You think they
Are imagined
Yes?
You
Don’t want
To see one
They will trap you
Slave!
Don’t
Eat their
Fairy food
Or you’ll succumb
Trap!
Out
They sneak
As humans
Leave the green wood;
Bye!

Airy Syllables Amputating
lousy lips laced
with gaunt gaze
projected per peacocky
enchanting pull pulsing
retracting reels rumbling
muffled messages mumbling
damped debacles dripping
saucy strapped in
freakishly folded feelings
cusses gulping graces
airy syllables amputating
relegating oily obloquy
parted limbs leaking
jumpy jazz jolting.

Warm Blue
I go out for walks
once in a blue moon
when I do it’s a warm day
and the sky is many shades of blue
the moon
is just a clipped fingernail
I’m so happy now
I’m over the moon and weather
not under it

Your Ideas Are Fanciful and Airy-Fairy
Your ideas are fanciful, friendly, airy-fairy.
The five-year-old smiled; this pleased her. She clapped her hands.
So we will use them! She said joyfully.
Not this time, her mother told her, but soon. Maybe next time.
What about a book? The five-year-old asked. Could we make my
ideas into a book?
It would be a fantastic book! Her

Airy Comfort
Abide pure sight of surreal streams,
Incite fond feel to know fine taste;
Rich sensuous light that flirt with dreams,
Yield bright goodwill that charms due haste.
Come to know truth in vibrant ways,
Observe the zest in brilliant fest;
Meet ample proof with tints that stay,
Flood happy jest with wonder's best;
Oblige the mood that flames sure thrills,
Rush of cool air

Airy Messengers
AIRY MESSENGERS
Serene weightless flight of dandelion
Seed puff-balls : thoughts ascending,
Gestating across the invisible void -
Untroubled, they silently float, glide,
Delivering a concept
On the air measureless
From somewhere else to here.

Seeking the Refuge of Great and Airy Dreams
Seeking The Refuge Of Great And Airy Dreams
Slumbrous my mind glides off into another place
seeking the refuge of great and airy dreams.
Yet always, always appears my darling your face
shining sweetly your bright smile that always beams.
There we walk together on soft dewy grass
our time romancing amongst the ancient trees.
Far too swiftly, dear fleeting time seems

An Imagined Airy Paradise
An Imagined Airy Paradise
Birds fly in the bright scarlet sky,
floating often on spreading wings.
Saddened earth below they happily defy,
on shining clouds gladly resting!
An image burns in an imaginative mind,
earth below seen so many other ways.
Such dreams inspire and serve to remind
heart's joy, love our life conveys!
What of this imagined airy paradise,
scenes that thrill so our
