Best Gadabout Poems
GarnetGadabout butterflies
glitter like red sunset.
Gem sparkles in the west.
Gracious nature provides
glamour hues in winter.
Glad robin sings, lustrous.
Goodbye, last robustness....

Faerie FanciesNut-brown owl nestled in a crooked tree
above the mermaid and jellyfish sea.
Scaly horse & teacup-octopus lads
near the sea-soaked teen; tail thrashes with glee
as her amethyst hair bobs and flows.
Nut-brown owl nestled in a...

StoryI'm just writing my story
Leaving out all the glory
I never tore them; yet the pages and spine are all but broken
Its letters are scattered, yet still the words form a concise omen
Would you read it back to me slowly, please, as you reach the bitter...

Savor Each MomentWhether a totally

perhaps at the
approach of yuletide,
one need not go
far and wide
across the webbed world
to experience being unified,
this quasi motto maxim of sorts
analogous to auld
sanity clause trailguide
motivates me to
seek if necessary
all the way to Telluride
to attempt Swiss-side
enlightenment with every stride,

~crisis of Faith~Silence endures soft tremors,
so offering gallant trophies
secreted down nonchalant talk,
keeping gall, like erratic cells
stored deep;
perhaps soulless.
Soliloquies strum machinates,
soft tremor reverberating
gaunt taboo over reluctance,
every yearning gadabout.
Tightening garrotte enfolding

youthful like eternity,
yet turgid, distended dream.
Malign nightmares skim
madness, suffocating gains,
so opaque; each hagridden.
Narcosis sublimely yells
soft torment...

Let Her OutFairy captured in a jar
All she wants is out.
Keeping her isn't going to make you popular
Or add to your repertoire.
I would say she lives here about.
Fairy captured in a jar
Yes, she has magic but she isn't bizarre.
Do you think your some one with clout?
Keeping her...

A Fidget of a WidgetA fidget of a widget, is fidgeting again
A feisty little midget, is what she’s always been
Her given name is Gidget, a girl with a giggle
The very same as Bridget, a whirl in a wiggle
If Gidget is a fidget of a widget with a growl
And Bridget...
