Best In A Wink Poems

Waking,

Sun could see sky

reflecting its color

in the lake. 

Feeling playful, 

it winked pink

They sit in the long grass
Cuddled up to smooch
She smiles at him sweetly’ saying
You can look but not touch

He looks so dejected 
That’s not what he wants
He is hungry inside
His breath comes in short pants

He tries to coax her
With a nibble on her ear
But she’s...

#68. MOON WINK 

I took a trip for fun, 
between the Earth and Sun, 
slid quietly between,
the star sun's scarlet sheen,
from its radiant show,
and in it's earthly glow. 

I cast misty shadows, 
on planet's green meadows,
and people took up hands,  
like stretchy rubber bands,
to...

One night I was trying to put a wide-awake and unruly child to bed.
She slipped, and slid, and giggled as she ran everywhere else instead.
But then I finally caught her as she climbed upon her Daddy’s lap.
He ask her why she wouldn’t go to sleep...

He sang to her
silly songs
because she asked
and because
      he promised.
And 
she knew, hundreds of miles away,
by the way the waves crashed on the shore,
the winds whipped his hair
and rocked his world,
he would never know
a tomorrow 
by the same name
again....

The sun's flirtacious wink woke me at dawn
I smiled, lazily stretched, and stifled a yawn

I was teased by the touch of his warm hand
The power of his refulgent torch, I understand

His golden majesty then rose to brighten the skies
greeting the morning in such a grandiose...

Gray clouds change the mood
As I watch them take over
The light, colorful sunset

But sunlight reaches
The edge of ominous clouds
Moving with lining of hope

Across the background
Where blue dominates the sky
Mixed emotions passing by

Light and dark transform
Rapidly as the sun sets
Blue fades to white into night

Through the...

The starfish that litter the seabed
are the stars that fell 
from abandoned Christmas trees;
are the leftovers
of shooting stars that missed;
are stars that have blown off the pages
of homework teachers praised.
On the ocean, when you look up,
you can see the stars blink,
if it is dark enough.
When...

when twilight comes soon the night falls
       and I lay my head on my pillow
    while up above the stars sprawl
        oh, my bedroom curtains billow

   What a wink signifies is oft-mysterious
      even in jest, ultra-serious 

   Heralding the existence of mental telepathy
      potent bond of intimate weaponry

Little one winks to her big James
Her mind wants the evening games
Ones desire to be astride
For their lips to collide
Passion fueled they danced into flames

With my white pumpkin I’m going to bake 
A pumpkin pie and say it’s cheesecake
It’s “vanilla bean”
Since it’s white like cheese -
If only they’ll take the bait plate!


Unsuspecting the pumpkin inside -
I tap tap my foot, just take a bite!
With “cake” in their mouths
Their taste...

My journey is shorter than a wink
Tarry a little, I shall be back
Apathy emits nauseating stink
Kindness is a needle in haystack

What shall I stay here for?
Bondages are hard to endure
Thy creations allure me from far
Beauties are mine, I’m not sure

Thy free gifts have a price...
