Snow Cone MagicThe red umbrella was the sign
An icy treat would soon be mine
A memory when I was young
When snow cone magic cooled my tongue
A block of ice perched on a cart
A masterpiece, a work of art
The line was long but soon I’d be
Filled with joy and...

Ode To a Traffic ConeOh noble cone, knight fluorescent.
Rooted, proud and irridescent
Soldier, friend, stalwart defender,
Stood firm betwixt chaos and fender.
Your pedestal, foursquare foundation. Beacon bold stood at your station.
The wizard's hat sent to protect. Calm, aloof and circumspect.
A cone, a clone, in columns prudent. The holy grail of...

Ice Cream ConeSitting here alone
With just an ice cream cone
Sucking at the side
With nothing to hide
A kid at heart
And no impart
No one to adhere
Ice cream from ear to ear
Licking up and down
Without so much as a frown
Like a boy so boisterous
Oh that creamy goodness...

Philippine Perfect ConeM-any tourists the world over
A-re in Mayon's safety site;
Y-es, the amazing lava fountain
O-f the volcano is clear at
N-ight.
V-iew the Philippine perfect cone,
O-nce you travel to Albay;

C-herish the ashes that pass by.
A-ll things are nicely created
N-o one...

A Single Pine Cone*A Single Pine Cone*
A single pine cone
Lying on a bed of snow
Its shadow seen against the morning’s curtain
Lying there cold and all alone
A pine needles throw from the old blue spruce
Sleep little pine cone
Sleep so tenderly
For soon the sun will nudge you more intently
Announcing the...

Dog That Wears a Cone(this is a little form I cooked up last year and called it 7/5 trochee. I like to use it for fun little tales. Saw this dog the other day!)
Little dog nearby my house,
cone around his neck.
Guess if he could talk, he’d bark:
What the bleeping...

Mabel Vera Cone 1893-1911Mabel Vera Cone
1893-1911
No one knew I existed.
No one knew I died.
No one, not even my family,
Knew I lived in the back,
Out back, way behind the small white house
On shady Canobie Street.
No one cared one iota.
No one wondered where I was
Or where I was going.
If loneliness...

Deep In the Conesubtitle: The Wonder of Unspoiled Beauty
Deep in the cone, function unknown,
wee kernels stand by on their throne.
A life spent with me - lodge pole pine.
Blistering heat – preordained sign,
nudges my embryos who groan.
Resin melting, fire whistle blown!
My seeds now burst forth, as if thrown,
bidding...

Pine ConeThe pine cone,
The wooden pine cone,
The brown pine cone,
Had a long story to narrate,
Its parent tree grew along a hill slope,
Fruit was born on its node,
When tree was about twenty feet long,
It began as a green soft nodal presence,
Loads of nutrient soon came along,
Sun shone...

The Cone-Shaped-Head ExtraterrestrialStanding on an open meadow, I had the celestial blues...
wanting to feel what was like to be somewhere else,
on a different planet where sunsets had luminous hues;
was there another universe more beautiful than ours?
Night came as silence became deeper, imagining of spotting a spaceship
landing...

Pine Cone Kissing NeedlesPine cone resting in tree top,
when a gentle little breeze,
gives him a little push,
falling so slowly to the
ground, kissing the needles
as it passes on by.

Lions Tigers and Bears Oh WhyLions and Tigers and Bears, oh, my.
Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh why?
Lions and Tigers and Bears are not really all that scary to me,
When we read the facts about other animals in tropical forests, and under the sea.
We should change the song to this...
