Best Lucy Poems

I find the red light
On a corner of a field of stone.
Lucy something – was she just thirteen?
Or maybe that century was a carved eighteen?
I ponder what she lived in stories I will never know.
Dropped by the hands of ghosts and demons,
Choking on Forever’s bread...

Mornings are magic in the garden.

Awakening plants open up slowly to the new day. As sunlight comes creeping over the horizon, touching sleeping leaves with gold, dewdrops are drenching the new spring growth. The light shows every spiderweb’s gossamer woven structure, with glittering diamonds hanging...

Come on over Ted said groovy Lucy
For tonight I’m feeling nice and juicy
Ted appeared unclothed 
With assets exposed
For the sake of a strawberry smoothie....

Have you ever listened to Rock Me Amadeus on Karaoke

I would rather be a Bat Out Of Hell on my Stairway To Heaven

And that is what they will have to sing when my box gets lowered

Sunk into eternity while the pastor's Guitar Gently Weeps


For Singing...

Lucy Swain

1861 - 1896


Lies! Lies! All damnable lies!
I know the injustice of malicious gossip.
I know the outrage of a loose evil tongue.
In life, I was Lucy Swain, the maligned!
I was Lucy Swain, the indignant!
In truth, I was Lucy Swain, the law-abiding, god-fearing victim
Who resided over...

LUCY


Born on ‘break dawe
Amber seeping across
Eyes th’were slumber behold
Her rise slow from dep’s azure

Pregnant buzz, breeds through chill moss
Brims ‘vr damp leaves
An unchasten world longs
Amber seeping across

A dilute earth humming
Awaiting warm release
Anticipation
Brims ‘vr damp leaves
Aware…There’s something coming

Slow spread of sparkling teardrops
Dancing at ease
Captured by richness
Awaiting...

LUCY - The ADVICE


Remember this:
From boys up to men, it’s always the same
Your heart gets broken …to them it’s a game.

Loving and sweetness when first you begin
Claiming ‘you don’t care’, they make you give in
You must be patient, you must make them wait
Two weeks or...

Ted suffers from 'Looseheel Ball'
It’s driving him clean up the wall
He’s got such an itch
It’s making him twitch
He’s begging the doctor to call

The medic said oh dearie me
This condition I rarely see
Your balls badly twisted
Teds scared eyes soon misted
When  doc says you need surgery

Doc...

I watch for her after midnight's twelve strokes,
often thinking how life likes to play cruel jokes.
Stilettos clicked on pavers as she walked
a nod on the stairs, but we'd never talked.
Eyes smudged with black liner, like bars on a cell,
She always returns looking like she's been...

Limerick: Once Lucy met Heidelberg Man

   for Nelson Mandela

Once Lucy met Heidelberg Man
Then Neanderthal and Peking Man
Tortoise said to the Turtle:
“Where’s your doggone girdle!”
“What a disgrace to my race,” said Bushman!

Wisping kitchen sunlight
                          through dust and wood smoke.

Little Lucy Lancelot lunching on an apricot,
Looking like a lovely London lady.
Bully Billy Ballantine wants to be her valentine,
But Lucy loves the goodly Graham Grady....

I loved to watch her as a child

Laughing at her antics and cooing at her wilds
Over the top trouble and silly jokes played
Viewing every show I could, before my parents waned
Every Thursday night (I think) I'd called it Lucy Day!

Lounging on my bed and letting...

Call her Lucy
O'! For She once was all
Heavenly kingdom strung 
On her Mandolin song

Call her Lucy 
O'! For she had it all
Had she not fallen
Rising end-time eyes forlorn

O'! My poor Lucy  
Fearing the last judges
Hammer,gavel,fire......
Earthly kingdoms now torn...
