Best Hearty Poems

I thought it was kind of romantic
I wasn't being a fanatic
I pulled it out in the cold
You thought that was a bit bold
I wrote it in the snow about you and me
How much I love you I wrote it with my pee

I almost froze it...

It’s the time of the year to make a steaming hot soup
To remember some of the best in our poetry group*
When I make soup I throw in everything I have in stock
My hot poetry soup will consist of many from our flock.

I will begin with...

Love’s in the blue, the sky, the bird, the ray.
Xanthous flicker of  light - the brilliant sun.
And white, the vellum space - she spills her day.
Emerald gown, her dress; hair golden spun.

Across the tiresome sea, the divide’s great.
Reflective waves imagine softest curls.
Easygoing, flashy morning,...

We got really dumped on yesterday

Was hoping we would miss out on this one

But must remember, this is Canada!

The land of ice and snow and parkas and snow shoes

At least that's the general perception

We have electricity and runny water and even indoor toilets

And not only...

Thanks to that Man
                   whose heart reflects the sweetness of music

Hearty Island Vacation
Hurray, hurray, step on the gas
family summer break jumps today!
We started out late, Jessica kept stumping "whining"
we stopped by the horse corral, he was neighing.
We’re going now, through dusty desert and long lonely stretch
unmoving in Barstow, California, so not many excitements.
We’re scanning for...

There was a Christmas party
The meal was very hearty
	With onions and cabbage
	Our colons it ravaged 	
Leaving us rather farty...

She awakes each day to it.
She ate it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
She bathed in it.
She let it wrap it's postulating arms around her.
She made love to it.
She lovingly cursed it, and then realized it's tangible effects on her.
She'll forever remember the start of it.
It...

Here we are, all of us
United in our grief
For this our friend and loved one
To say goodbye is beyond belief

She was a trusted real fine woman
Lived life so good and true
She never showed a minutes anger
Good hearted wishes all she knew

Her Family meant the world...

Hearty beef stew
Beef bullion fondue
Carrots not a few
Diced taters imbue
Beef chunks to the brew
Salt and pepper to
Accentuate!...

They have in their senses,
A bloated self-image worthy of pulling the best.
Letter-assortments, their sense, they knew not,
Yet march on with leaps of obstinacy to brim.
Subtly aided by the fairest in all,
Visualed only due to sacrifice of self
So maintained, would ever beget close but forget house.
Once...

Hearty at 40
(A poem dedicated to the love I lost)

1, 2, there’s me and you,
3, 4, to the sky, let us soar.
5, 6, your broken heart, I’ll fix,
7, 8, say yes, don’t make me wait.

9, 10, you’re Barbie, I’m Ken,
11, 12, 13, such beauty I’ve...

Sharing bounty of delicacies’ sweet
But wait, good food, we must pick
Since wellness is not a trick…
Thanking* the Lord for healthy veggie meat.

A HEARTY EXPERIENCE

Bad cholesterol found easy sites in my heart for deposition
Time came when they needed to be cleaned by operation.

Two stents were planted by what they called angioplasty
My heart would survive if the arteries didn't again get nasty.

As medical treatments were getting day by...
