Best Fest Poems

Homes so recently abandoned
for Sunday swims and picnics
have become indoor respites
from the restless chill of change.

Secure, still days have vanished,
with hazy meadows humming.
Fireflies have met their end,
replaced with jack-o'-lanterns.

Now forewarning breezes,
stealthy, crisp, and vibrant,
pierce preoccupations,
uncovering reckless impulses.

Now uncanny images,
voices of chance and charm,
bide their ghostly...

When the moon’s gaslight wraps my hair
In beaded lace and creamed amber,
The winking skies bid me a playful roam
Enthralled by an incense of orchids
Dripping around a gazebo’s path…
I cuddle the zing of heat’s yearning
And as summer drones its raspy tune,
My limbs prance in a flamenco...

Arc of moonlight here by the lake:
Moments of grace now and here bring,
Insight and sight reveal fond take;
Dreams flood and trace what vision flings.
Autumn has come with stillness clear,
Unleash the feel of happy days;
Times quickly sum the harvest cheer,
Unwind and heal the wounded ways;
Meet moon...

auburn light tickling mystic marshlands
on thin rafts kissing noon's delight
husky day  lifts grasses’ hems
cradling petals on palms,
herons dance astray
a dizzy feast
all flowers

It sheer is nice to munch all night
and all day, too, with farmer Byron’s crew
of sheep, that is, that wander underneath 
his wide walnut grove, that’s old and true. 

Hey, baa baa Babe, don’t you run away 
you’re missing tons of fresh, green hay
meanwhile baa...

Sun-Dried Rain
David J Walker

Following the path of 
Southwest winds 

Carving canyons  
Starving clouds and land alike

Making sand of topsoil
As pilgrims pray for rain

staking a claim in blowing dust
In bilingual refrains 

of long missed moisture 
and drying rust 

Sun-dried children cleansed and swaying
on backyard clothes...
