Best Addition Poems

The newest addition to my family
My bro-in-law christened him Milo
Another named him Jimmy
He’s more like a Chuckie
to me—driving me loco
The greenest eyes
He’s pretty lucky
He loves pink salmon 
and playing catch
with crumpled paper I toss,
the unwanted poems I scratch
Biggie (aka) needs weight loss
I tumbled as I...

THE CITY

a respite
an evening silence
all objects quiet
yet this clamorous echo
fills my head


the city
with everything to do
lots of excitement
but here am i
atop my quiet mountain


i’m a city boy
this I want everyone to know
in echo lake
just a misplaced big fish
in a little pond

Math Birds Colorful

pale vision of sum
the addition of all the
colors dividing

painted on fractions
brillants multiple into...
peacocks algebra

colors divide
all birds counting fowl into
math answers flying

all birds colorful
outside of their nesting
bird mathematics

pale vision of sum
brillants multiple into..

       oh it was dreamy
lost in a haze of nothing-
                 crashing down   screaming

I got sick, hospital sick, like death's...

Every moment precious to be savored
Zephyr breath soft sweet welcome
Entering hearts in coy fashion
Keeping thoughts of heaven near.
Innocence shines through wraps of cotton
Eclipsing both sun and moon
Love's legacy incorporated into you.


Wrote this for a new addition to the family.  Babies are such a blessed...

Sparks of inspiration fueled frisson building, crafting, 
designing, a gamut of glorious finished products, that 
offset bereft reaction dad experienced at workplace. 
Seventh heaven for him found in the cellar at "Glen 
Elm", where freelance dadaist artist, this detail 
potential heresy if management got wind...

Men do love sensuous naked girls
Pervocatively posed do their caresses
Engulf the male’s fantasy world
Purged in dark secrets 
The male’s mind explores
Only to give heart 
To a make believe girl
Day-in day-out man battles within
Until man’s addition is no longer self-viewed sin
Men do love the casino’s glitzy...

The wrecking ball long since
     demolished boyhood house zen
located at 324 Level Road,
     a once rural residence,
     which soulful yen
I called home
     since February 28th, 1968, when

Boyce and Harriet...

MORE THAN LOVE
I've looked in eyes so blue they made me soar
through all the gifts of life, this much and more
to challange me to things that could not be
unless had been aroused the very soul of me.

I've seen the smile that makes the heart to...

All I could afford  

Was loitering at Stu Wards  

Having a draft  

Rooty tooty in beer craft  

When suddenly  

It was not funny  

A feeling I was done  

No longer welcome 

It was twilight gleaming  

Star struck...

ADDITION SHORT

I was short on addition
And I couldn’t subtract the different
My heart and mind was divided
2-+2 was 4 no more
And I couldn’t subtract the different
Multiply the fractions rounded up to 8
2+2 was 4 no more
Had to take the eraser, wipe off all numbers and recalibrate
Multiply...

Away from tireless desk job i.e.,which obliged 
swearing allegiance, fealty, loyalty within complex 
edifice, where obsolete quaint rubric, schematic, 
thematic mantra "We Bring Good Things to Life,"
met with gnawing, emerging, chomping 
objectionable quandary. The sedentary station 
exhausted, milked usurped mental energies 
linkedin hinged upon the...

“An Addition to The Canterbury Tales”

By Nicholas Giro

There was also a CANDYMAN, a fine seller of his trade,
Who went along the countryside selling the candies he made.
He was a portly, jolly, and merry fellow
Who always wore red and blue, avoiding the color yellow.
With his short...

My Math Teacher said:
I know how to teach you about 1
but can't guide you into comprehending None--0

A more sacredly co-arising binomial relationship,
less traveled bipartisan path
to know Zero rises positive toward full future
and suppresses negative
degenerating back
reversing toward empty non-numeric past.

In any not qualitative
and non-quantitative way
that would...
