Ice crystal contrails cerulean skies crisscross,
Grazing the wispy clouds of cottony linens
Like smooth white, waxy strings of dental floss
Strung out high above these heavenly denizens.

Grazing the wispy clouds of cottony linens
Are they playing war games above the peace?
Strung out high above these heavenly denizens
Are they...

I Prefer Those Daring To Just Write


I prefer my poetry very raw and real
giving life and emotion to be seen
A prize, a parade - the real deal
not words delivered merely to preen
Stand back and give true strokes
reactions,good or bad are alright
Do that,touching the right folks

Aiming to be truly great,
where there is no debate.
It is a very natural instinct:
An instinct inherently innate. 

We were created uniquely special.
I have come to this given realization.
This is surely a fateful maturation.
To rightly aim at this destination.

Obstacles may come in the way.
People can give...

Awe but man! She is a looker!
Don’t know if she’s someone’s honey,
Or a chargin’ hooker.

She’s struttin’ her stuff down town in her Lees,
jeans so tight, 
they’ve locked her knees..

Must be wearin’ all that makeup just to hide the pain,
a price she pays for the attention...

I touched his hand
On that playground
With those children 
Looking
With sun in his hair
And his sparkling eyes
Outdoors smelled 
Better than wet grass 
After rain
Than vanilla ice cream cones
On Sunday
                    ...

Love’s oft audacious and temerarious,
presumptuously daring, yet close to heart.
An adventurous, although precarious
journey, of self-discovery from the start.
Our attempts at love can be hilarious
for at times, we put the horse behind the cart.
But our egos soon learn honesty is best,
for to experience love, hearts must...

Eating a bowl of red jello
    a friendly alligator said hello

  Sociable me greeted him back
    not desiring a 'gator attack

  Came across an amiable bear
    asked me if I'd brush his hair

In a quiet pond so tranquil fair
Mirrors looking back to me
Daring me to dream of where
Should I close my eyes to see
Beyond this place where I live
Illusions raptures in fantasy
Submitting my very soul to give
So gently there to carry thee
And borne upon the scented air
A...

Quatrain #37:
DARING


Dare to dream bold as your word sums,
Style and unfold that fond outcome;
Blooms that you hold follow grand voice,
Transcend the old with joyful psalm.

Curry this
Curry that
Dare to add
A burst of flavor
Uniquely spicy
Savory and earthy
Exotically extravagant
Hot or mild bouquet
Ticklish of the taste buds
Enamored colors to entice
Reminiscent of faraway delights

I am your joy, your hopes and dreams
I will mold you to stay mindful
I am the ease with which you wake
I will embrace you each time you climb
I will bathe you in tender thoughts
I am the sound of songs you hum
I am your vision holding...

go caterpillar,

At the corner of King and Far West Street
A newly arrived German family
They'd given birth to one
We were twelve or thereabout
I saw her in twilight of Hit Parade on radio Belize
I'd just walked barefoot from my yard
Never made it to Jim, the grocer next door.

I...
