Best Cavorted Poems

cavorted about as elfin brides
under a saffron maple tree^^^^
Dressed in prism-hued layers
of chiffon in ethereal shimmers
and delicate silken gossamers
They having their group wedding in the fall
And fairy folk bustled about all round
as flimsy and flighty as they could...

On Pebble Beach's seventh green
I paused to watch an otter.
He dove, cavorted, spun around,
An acrobat on water.
Then lolling, drifting, eyeing me
He twitched brown nose and whiskers.
His thought, that moment, mirrored mine:
"He plays all day, that rascal."...

This dread disease that has afflicted my home, 
This malady, this plague on my house;
This making convertible the former quaintness and provincialism thereof 
Into something wholly despicable and disgustingly homogeneous,
Yclept "cosmopolitanism," and "worldliness," and "globalization," 
(Or, perhaps "globalism");
That force of rude power that recognizes no...

Gay Policeman

He was beautiful, the gay policeman. Wearing his silver swimming trunks. Baby oil glistened on his body. As he strutted his stuff in the gay club, it was heaven.

Everybody loved him. Even the straight people. Cat calls and cheers erupted as he cavorted on...

They danced and they turned and they tumbled
In wind, how it sighed and it grumbled
With force, how it howled in its fury
But still they bore no trace of worry

In cool autumn winds they cavorted
My foot! How they laughed and they sported
They flew through the air...

Mother Nature met Old Father Time, and what a good time they had
They cavorted for quite along while, she a girl, him a bit of a lad.
Then one day when Father Time, a wrinkle set in mother natures plan
All those things she gave birth too,...

Sun-faded cardboard photographs
of 1970’s hairstyles
were tacked to 
the brown paneled walls.
His counter was cluttered with 
the shiny tools of his trade,
a chipped glass bowl
laden with lollypops,
and a jar of combs 
in blue liquid.
National Geographic,
Sports Illustrated, 
and Life
were spread out 
like Chinese fans
on the coffee table.
On...

Memories linger melancholy
as I approach the bridge 
to the Gardens de Sol.

The Jester

The castle page sent for him
And the jester could quickly conclude
That despite a life of grandeur
The king was in a sad mood

His entrance was swift and grand
Sweeping gestures as he advanced
A job all his own, to uplift the throne
As he cavorted about and danced

All...

But is it true?
Does flesh impart
the spirit heart with mystery
to synchronize its beating—
fare its child with golden history
beyond its bloody birth,
its soft resigning death
to spur romance alone?

There is a touch of sainthood
in the firelight raconteur who
sketches in the apparition of a god
to dress his reach...

Afraid to be unsupported.
With not posting, she cavorted.
Till a spirit did appear, 
Saying, cease all fear. 
With that, she penned undaunted!

Silence was frozen in the morning cold:
no movement seen, except for untold
clouds of  ice crystals drifting in the air.
Of their glittering cascades, I was aware,
as I was of patterns upon my window panes.
A frozen display of drizzled, moisture veins.

Formed overnight, they sparked imagination,
and for...

Dust Danced

Dust danced above the unset table
mocking the sun’s attempt at warmth
randomly cavorted through the vacancy
of forever, and never, in collision.
