Best Carmel Poems

The taste of homemade Carmel so sweet/ everyone I know desires the treat.

After one night in the kitchen covered/ half the pan gone, next morning discovered. 

 Is it my beagle Lily whom loves any food? / she seems in a hyper beagle mood.

 I know I heard a squeak in the night / a...

         Right by my side, no matter what

Carmel by the Sea

Three-quarter distance to the city
the rose bowl parade's held,
paying a friend another visit
as if the golden gate is not
um, not after umpteen years.

she does a lot of shopping
touchy-feely, whatchamacallit
reveals the wherewithal that
we're still friends

an artisans treasure
trove, this cubby-hole of
Clint Eastwood's hideaway
from the city of the...

Secrets passed through my soul

He held my hand , my heart did flutter

My heart felt as the sky filled my world

His eyes as I walked by would be the feeling someone gets in love

I turned for second in time my haunted lover was not there

Instead a Red Rose, laid with his glove

I left I strolled...

You were the first of our crew.
A  lioness, through and through.
Soul of a huntress, brave, strong.
Four foot nine.
Compassionate, geneorous soul, full of charm.

Look at the beautiful legacy you left behind.
The memories of you will carry on.

You knew your days were through.
You told me so.
You just did not want anyone else to know.
Thought it would...

There, it was lying
Among the school boys' ankles,
Along the horizon of the blue, 
clear water 
Above the level of the concrete 
curb,
On the narrow, packed 
downtown street.
It had no scent,
For which your nose could 
already sniff the salty air.
It had no direction,
Just swifting through the grey 
sky...
But you imagine it leaves by 
noon?
No.
It's eternally there
Along...

carmel morning

was it morning 
or the touch of your skin against mine 
that reminded me of yesterday 
in carmel 

sidewalk cafés and coffee clouds 
sounds of daylight peeling back last night’s sunset 
packing it away in the side pocket 
of a brown leather case 

we lay in bed 
swallowing laughter like cinnamon rolls 
devoured and...
