Best Foiling Poems

There were three mice, members of the mob
Wanted to retire, so planned one last job
It was deep winter and it started to snow
But they weren't deterred, and the job was a go.

Their names were Gnasher, Scratcher and Dred
And you dared not cross them or you'd...

Pretty, tawny, tabby Tabor 
purring   snuggler,
full of  curiosity and play 
He saw the door ajar for a fast getaway
His golden eyes gleamed
Jail break; as he dreamed


Ditching out as fast as a jet
The backyard pond he couldn’t forget 
full of lily pads and...

I am the wind
the textured curl of clouds
those specks of glitter
silver and gold are my
illustrative gleams

the foiling wings
that flutter and flap
feathers ripe with color

complementing all rosy hills
a rolling kiss a splash of
blush a dash of spicy dish
the pepper and the salt
of a morning's stirring serving

I'm a fruit of the tree of life
with knowledge of
the unknown
What I'm known to leave floats 
above trees with grown broken 
branches
I've grown to see that not
all soil is fertile as many
seeds are left
to languish & toil
The grounds are barren for
the unyielding & those
sowing with...

A CHRISTMAS ARRAIGNMENT

Late one December evening
A sound woke me from my bed,
I grabbed a baseball bat for safety
And crept downstairs full of dread.

I must admit I was not fit
For foiling midnight burglaries.
My cousin had kept pouring eggnog,
I kept on saying, “Yes, please.”

I slunk down the...

They say in his old age, Isaac was blind
    yet like his father Abraham, unusually kind

  Rebecca, his wife, came from a family evil and cruel
    her brother Laban tried to rob Eliezer of all of his jewels...

What indignation hath a mothers fury
for one who illl-uses her own
Manipulation delivered obscurely 
In speech or in deed intoned

Upon such one her wrath will rain
foiling their plan of ill gotten gain
no hope for the fool who does such things
who causes a mother to see her...

A short stout figure in the forward line of attack,
dribbled with the darting ball on the green turf.
With the magnetic pair of fleeting legs like a wizard, 
spearheaded the formidable formation of the team.

The opponent defenders had to invent new strategy 
to thwart your crafty...

The Morning sun
 Showered upon me 
A handful of joy

The setting sun
Gave an assuring hug
foiling the ploy

of all the slithering abundance of tiresome life...

When you move forth,
in your life;
There are friends and kin,
Who can't stand;
Your growth hurts;
Without realizing
How hard it was,
Foiling all painful hurdles,
In your way;
The past best friends,
Are now green-eyed; 
Anticipate your fall,
To the height they are;
Lose no chance to see,
Your painful moments;
Lay thorns in your way,
Some...

After three decades and a kicking more,
I deem it glaring waste and blatant loss
To play sad part of second servile fiddle
In elite cadres agleam with ersatz gloss.

Whatever charged scrolls attuned to pelt
With loaded deterrents deft souls that try,
I now must with age's ever-tightening belt
Stand to...

when eerie emotions smother
passion, apt affairs affections punctured
urges oozing velocity
caught'n gaunt grasp of eroticism

when epacris ******** wail
trailing obsession, taunted trail -
hideous hankering of pleasures
foiling features, feelings' fractures

whenever bruised brain births blitzkrieg
sassy sanity's  smithereens in spree
dark drooling dribbling damp rhythm
that rustic rape prune melody

tame torn...

Rolling through space Earth enjoys her comfortable
Distance from the giving sun, of his light, with
Warmth enwrapping daytime life of verdant growth in
Goodness wholesome grain, trees, wind, rain, rivers, and pith.

Other planets rotating around the sun’s glory,
Venus basking in heat along with Mercury’s boiling
Blast of oven...

Mary was ten and she adored flowers, and she had three pretty sisters;
But, she never could make a garden grow; like stars, losing jade glitter.

Sisters Sarah, Martha and Alice spoiled Mary, for she was the youngest;
Just as lime spring is youngest of the seasons, whereas...

worn wit's fang
omen's punctured prank
hoisted odds hampered
relieving rusty orders
monstrous myth melt
dripping dark delves

eerie experiment etched
foiling felon flesh
mental horizon's mesh

fragile future's confetti
humming hacked hymns
quarantined fate flicked

callous contractions cruised
birthing blitzkrieg bruised.
