Best Brindle Poems

The rosa blanda embroidering your face
will become the veins in my tongue reaching to clog my throat
go past the tonsils and vocal chords and windpipe
down and down still, burrowing into the esophagus 
relentless in its pursuit, just, just, just to lay seeds in my chest

Love brought many kitties; each one special.
Some colors solid, others were brindle.
They come in big sizes and some of them small.
No matter how they look, I like them all.

My first fluffy kitty was beautiful, white.
One eye was blue and the other one green.
He grew to...

It was bucking bulls and cowboy busting broncos
And the challenge that accompanied each ride
That consumed the heart and mind of my young cowboy
And this fact my Buddy never tried to hide. 
I recall the time we met in Kelly’s diner
He was busted up and feeling...

From my chair
Through the air
I want my info now 
 Truth or dare
I don’t care
Give me info now

Hip wired infolites
Something bout usage rights
Whereas my info wow
Flying flags ever knowing
Looking back never going 
Here’s my info now

Meaning without content
Exists without it being sent
The contents meaning slowly...

Bill Bulldog we had named him 
with his brindle coloured coat
He had the most amazing face
too many wrinkles for one so young
mischievous, cuddly and full of fun

At first the only sounds he made
that first night all alone
heartbreaking cries 
he missed his Mum
He’ll settle soon in...

These two old pups are near and dear;
I’ve kept them both throughout the years.
Lyra’s brindle, still cheetah-fast;
Lemony’s best years, in the past.
The thought of losing brings a tear.

When daughter schooled quite far from here 
and had them crated, it was clear
they could not last, were...

oh gee he is a bundle
of dog as i have the same brindle coat
on a mantel they remind me what it took
of my life to make them gentle to the world
and futon come handy as we listen to operas
and with my I camera should I...

Tonight it starts again.
The longing for something I can’t have.  
A life that is meaningful.  
I claw and scrape the surface of humanity.  
A bubble that wont’ be burst.  
I am on the outside looking in.  
Tilt-o-whirl dreams spin out...

I wonder how beautiful a rainbow looks
Through the eyes of a color-blinded
As it shines and comes down from the heaven
Taming the raging cry of the storm, as to brindle…It down
For those who can see its wonder, believes the beauty-ness of it
But God said “Blessed are...

burnt sienna buds

I don't see how it matters
Should we be brindle, black, or white
After all our colour
Is governed by our sight

So in a world of darkness
We would be all the same
How can there be a difference
Our eyesight is to blame

So how about we take a look
See what...

My guru carries a set of brass knuckles
you'd think he'd be all yes sir and no sir
but instead I get ahah hoho and egad
I can't do anything right on my best day
and I have the branding iron scars to prove it
tattooed in diagonals like barricade...

Dear Griffin,
 I clearly remember the first time we met. Jim had brought you at all of
four months of age to my families summer reunion. You were shy with
those striking bi-eyes and those massive white paws accentuated by
your thick brindle coating. Jim had purchased you...

Her tail tells tales as wags of whining pleasure
of frolicking service; treasures of licks and love
snips of lips, cheeks rubbing fur to skin akin
kinship-mans best friend finding flee-free paws

shots of super vaccinations to vacation to parks
averted eyes; chewed leather, spilled trash magically 
delicious yet daunting;...

and in my dream fantasy ...
       I find my beloved Chimera horse
      he is quite beautiful, magical and wild
          with great feathery wings breathtaking ...
