Best Attractions Poems

Sunlight sooths my heart
Warming my sweetest joy
Telling me to never depart
From the hope I deploy

Raindrops touch my soul
Filling me with a true glow
That no one could have stole
It is a fancy that I will always know

Moon and stars twinkle above
Ministering to my heart’s dreams
Showing me...

All about me the butterflies feed and soar,
my heart flutters, my mind takes flight.
Every second electrons escape bondage, shed light—
this is how I would paint the day, flapping in joy,
instant by instant changing images, changing tune,
beckoning me beyond my world, afar, off on a flight

Spring Attractions

Twas every day upon the arbor
that a certain early bird eagerly sang.
Every day, as sun appeared, his audible
voice awakened bluebells…allowing this
opera house a song and sight of spring.

Always dreaming of Spring, along with
its serenading offspring; for ears to enjoy,
craving eyes to appreciate… feastings offered
with...

but then "Windy" rushed Billy and threw him down to the ground.
He sat on Billy's chest pinning his arms down to the floor.
He punched and smacked...

There are guns all over the country aiming at you.
There's a lawman on your trail who'd love to surround you.
Bounty hunters are encroaching all around you.
Billy they're just never going to let you be.
It seems that there's always some...

You get to the movies
And find a good seat.
Perhaps you have purchased
Some popcorn to eat.

The lights start to dim
But there’s no satisfaction,
‘Cause now you will see
The first coming attraction.

There used to be two of them,
Possibly three;
But now there’s no telling
How many there’ll be.

I lost count...

The theater gives you just a taste
Of what’s to be expected,
So if you don’t have time to waste
Some films may be rejected.

My husband hates them but not me
For I enjoy the peek
At movies I may never see;
I form a quick critique.

Some dialogue, the place it’s...

I have yet to write a poem about a toothbrush
   or toothpaste or cremation or zinc

One thing I am sure of, however, and that is
   if I do, I shall have merely wasted a little more ink...

Is liking someone so uncommon
or wanting someone, a new phenomenon?

Are you an April - wreaking the milieu to discourage me?
Is that why you disparage him to such a degree?

He’s heartful and sincerious,
he’s slammin’ hot but oblivious.
He’s music, lust and fun,
all rolled into one.

So, I’m calling...
