Best Juiciness Poems

Big ripe Mcintosh apples found lying on the ground
Release sweet juiciness when their finders take a bite.
Ibises of scarlet stand elsewhere in the world without a sound
Gathered underneath a crimson sky awaiting night.
Hovering near bushes bursting ever rosily
Twin monarchs flutter; cardinals sit on a red-flamed...

Summer’s sweetest natural dessert
Presented itself to me in the form of a
Large seeded watermelon that
I found by chance at a local food stand.
Thrilled was I to see such a perfect specimen!

Wide, round, and green,
It had a yellowish underside and those “bee stings”
Desired by people who...

Though I'm ashamed to say it now, I never took conservation seriously,
Just living life as if nothing else mattered, full of wonted complacency.

I would hear intense talk of the climate, recycling and global warming,
But I disliked such grim talk, when a coral sun yet rose...

Twilight whispers behind the blinds;
I barely see, but I believe,
In the ruby and orange rinds,
Moon blossoms of midsummer eve.

I barely see, but I believe
In the twinkling star diamonds,
Moon blossoms of midsummer eve.
Romantic ebon-sky widens.

In the twinkling star diamonds,
Circling like a halo above,
Romantic ebon sky widens;
Where...

Where bumbles bounce and witches fly
Faeries and jet streams in yesterday’s sky
I glance up and see an eagle so high
And I laugh at the juiciness of yesterday’s sky

They are hop skipping and flitting and fluttering too
The brownies and what-knots playing in diggery-doo.
My brain is on...

My true African Queen 
with the beauty I've never seen 
The one who got me in this 
scene 
On your love I can always lean 

Can it be your soothing touch 
that vanishes away all the pain 
in my heart, increasing 
the love intensity I...

Step, step, step
You see your feet move forward
But you move nowhere and nowhere can be found
Your feet feel heavy, what once felt light

The ease of trampling now seems like a dark night
Air, cold and chilly, challenges you forward
It pushes you to feel a warmth never...

If tomorrow could be a day
I will wake up to see wonders
Morning of flowers blooming
Sun rising with bright smile
Giving the world reasons to wait for other days

If tomorrow could be a day
I will climb the mountain with love
To experience the power of beauty
Find what my...

	Dangerous and beautiful, 
	tasty and deadly, 
	nature’s guessing games... 
	
	When I was a child 
	my mother told me that 
	her parents and other wise adults 
	warned her never to eat tomatoes.
	After all, it was well known 
	that all parts of the tomato plant,
	especially the ripe...

Cornucopia

Trumpet Sounding – abundance Resounding –
A harvest not Empty – a horn of Plenty –
Season bounty Astounding – safe from snowbound Surroundings
Fall Caressing fair autumn Blessings.

Sweet orbs of Green or burgundy Seen
In arbors that Wait grape clusters to Take
Nectars Serene in fermenting Dreams
Dew mists so...

Gholam startled for a second, smelling the women; 
his nose turned sharply to the east, 
Glad he would be able to rapidly 
pick up their scent after devouring his feast,

Madic had been an acquaintance of sort, 
but his slimy slippery flesh was ripe for eating,...

Jeepers it is hot in here
I just burned my derriere
But I don't mind at all because
I am being cooked with love
Tenderly simmered in a pot
My skin fell off--I am so hot
I feel naked but so free
Juiciness all around me
In a bath of smokey steam
I'll soon...

As I gaze at my gorgeous lunch salad
sings to me a sonorous love ballad!
What’s dazzling about temporal food
that calls for this surreal mood?
The melting silk of shredded cheddar cheese
on the sharp crunch of leafy romaine lettuce
the crimson of tomatoes on the vine
ripened to juiciness by...

R uby red blossoming skin
Y es with one bite, I suck that cherry taste in
