'airy Ain'T It‘Airy Ain’t It
It sways the trees and makes them bend
while fueling climate changing trend
It’s Mother Nature breaking wind.

Seeking the Refuge of Great and Airy DreamsSeeking 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...

Light and AiryIf only life could be light, airy and easy breezy,
with little complications or strife,
Peace would be nice.......,
Yet, it could never be,
because most humans thrive
on controversy,
making life a chore,
a bore, deep, dark and heavy laden....

Airy and Emmett StreetAiry 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...

Airy SurfaceThese moments that I strive to breathe
I find myself consumed with disbelief
Fear and no sense of relief
I grasp for air
but I cant seem to find any here
No where to be found, not even over there
I know I am strong

Airy MessengersAIRY 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.

Airy StillnessSky of cyan blue
Meeting with the cobalt grey
Of the ocean depths
Waves never lacking in strength
Lapping alongside of the boat
A peace and calming
Over the airy stillness
Is the real brilliance
Delightfulness in the sky
Measures equal in the sea

An Imagined Airy ParadiseAn 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...

Airy ComfortAbide 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...

Warm BlueI 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

TinselryVarying 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,...
