Best Added Poems

cherry blossoms fall
confetti cast to the wind
tumbling to the ground

orange koi swimming
summer rain upon the pond
lotus of soft blush

bamboo whispering
their voices sing at twilight
serenade the moon

fire fades from the sun
low upon the horizon
bowing to the sea
rays of light shimmering gold
sunset crosses the threshold

Sung to the melody of when I’m 64 by The Beatles

Gotta keep working an extra few years
(Not like years ago)
Governments are screwing us for every dime
I can’t afford a bottle of wine
Hip's been replaced
Yes I’m getting old
I’m too old to twerk
But I’m so needy
and my...

As thephilosopher  readies for his p soup anniversary 
Remembering he found this place last Christmas Day
Surely the best gift he did receive
Now for some holiday fun, DON”T LEAVE

To mispronounce it with a bad rhyme would...

There are a few gentlemen I admire
Whose lovely poems set my heart afire
Though we live far apart
They all captured my heart
Their romantic verses make me perspire.

I dare not expose each poet by name
Cuz I'm afraid that would make them fair game
To the women of soup
Who...

Soft subtle brushes floating  in a sea
of anticipation  bubble across jagged
scars   running effortlessly     upon a
beaten chest      eye lashes flickering
flirting        every time a simple hum

Sure like my image to be added to Mount Rushmore
It could be animated with me chuckling forevermore
In the history books I'd be
One who wrote about pee
Not very dignified but a poet top drawer

Never in my world have I had anything to fight for, but you
I've been through hell and back only if you knew

We kept our relationship on the down low
We snuck around so that nobody important would know

We had our moments, were goodbye seemed to long
Even...

Sometimes love just isn’t enough
Art is our way home to finding ourselves
We were blindfolded ballerinas. Swaying to the rhythm of our hearts breaking.  We tippy
toed  across a tight rope, looking for some sort of answer from dangerous lovers, like hope. 
She the tigress...

Dressing Things Up

Up things he always seems to be dressing;
Using poor vernacular when expressing,
And Trump to go there is no telling how far
Dancing around in circle seems to spar
With many new lunatics now is nesting.

Inundated With Ignorance

With much ignorance he was inundated
Having a possibility that was...

?With Music Added

This sunny morning thought that I 

Say hi to nice neighbor who I live by

And a great guitar he does play

With wife wonderful looking in every way.




Maybe might invite me over again

So we can see how we both have been

A song write about...

(Eileen)
Your heavy heart is weary, worn
Bloody and bruised, it’s fiercely torn
To Loneliness, a vow you've sworn
To dwell in night without a morn
Come inside

To live and love, you've lost your will 
Of sorrow’s cup you've had your fill
Desire’s longing, quiet…still
Heart frozen by rejection’s chill
Come inside

Chorus
Come inside...

Conquest of a heart 
Pouting lips of the one you love
A youthful soul
Memories that skip the ugly bowl

Senses unfold 
Love letters read at a quiet hour
Christmas mistletoe kisses
Shooting STAR wishes.

Fondness of special days 
And a smile on every face
Never fades
As years pass

Fast as a dizzying...
