Best Mushroomed Poems

A faint perfume of lilac blooms has stirred the sleeping dawn
Bright sunlight weaves a golden loom with threads across the lawn
Crisp white-lipped Delphiniums tossed snowflakes to the hills, while
Daffodils and pink jonquils shake off the morning chill

Each violet of morning has left no stone deferred
Found...

Skagit River, wild and scenic,
Carrying salmon in her flows.
Scattering riches with abandon
Without stopping as she goes.

Crossing international border
With no one to tell her nay.
Man has sought to tame her waters
As she goes her merry way.

When her mood is mild and tranquil,
Lovers picnic on her beach.
When...

I chose to jump that cliff
In sweet sleepwalking
Accidentally into each other
We fell, lulled dream-talking
Tucked cozily on his shoulder
Nestled, esteeming to exalting

But the stench of fear
Arose so unnerving
Out of the blue, casually
The only certainty is an ending
Panic bloomed, mushroomed
The million spores to its propagating

So paralyzed, I...

IN THIS GENERATION, THE LEVEL OF EVIL HAS BECOME so RAMPANT that CHRISTIANITY IS ALMOST VACCANT.
IN THIS GENERATION, CHRISTIANITY HAS BECOME A SHADOW, SO SHALLOW THAT IT’S ONLY DWINDLING ON THE BANKS OF FOG.
IN THIS GENERATION, CHRISTIANITY, JUST LIKE DIGNITY, VANITY AND VIRGINITY ARE NOW...

Kids bullied him; he did not have one friend,
and hollow were his teachers’ words to him.
Perpetual anxiety can bend
the troubled mind; his thoughts grew more than grim.
They mushroomed, and they spiraled next into
sick fantasties – a strange kaleidoscope
of wicked things that he was going to...

We watched Frida Kahlo 
with our backs toward the rice fields
The monkey fits tightly to her breast, 
her right breast. A parrot 
on her left shoulder; two chatter-boxes that mimic
What if the wolves pull our wool over our eyes?

In lands where barbarians sacrifice youths for...

"Say Hello To Saying Goodbye"


            It is said "Parting Is Such Sweet Sorrow!"
            No truer words could have ever been spoken!

The song she sang of morning, sweet with life,
And how she walked the mountain ridge to bathe
  Her flawless form in sparkling springs;
Blackberry hair fell sleek to statue shoulders,
Pale and marbled breasts brushed by the strands,
  Her parted lips sighed of wondrous things.
Eyes...

Fungus grew between her toes
                       How and when, no one knows
Perhaps, barefoot in mushroomed fields

foisted upon her was the merry go round crystal chandelier

it stuck in her beautiful mind like a beacon of flaming desire

of clouds fried by a cuckoo with an indestructible socket

her eyes wide upon pupils dilated endorphins personified

life liberty pursuit of happiness revolutions and counter attacks

Walking through the dappled forest, my mind reveled in its magnificence
The first thing I noticed was the shadowed silence; it was self-empowering.
More relaxing than a power nap. A large shadow flew over the tree line.
I focused on where I thought it might be next, it...

ROSEMARY THYME was walking down the street when she CINNAMON CUMIN,  who's name
was SWEET BASIL.  He was from OREGANO.
She fell in love with him ALUM the way, PARSLEY because of his good looks.

But her POPPYSEED her...ANISE mad!!  Her sister GINGER tried to...

A mental pilgrimage
beyond the horizon
of mind,
unrefined.

Self introspection,
pricked my conscience
with your double edged
remarks.

Realization shattered
self-complacency
mushroomed 
in my untamed self.

On the verge
of desolation
I encountered you
my Teacher
who took me
to the unending vista
of imagination....

Fits of fancy windrifts blow
tidbits chancy...abyss unknown
bellowing sails mushroomed force
following trails laid out in course

Navigating distant stars
alleviating lost afar
charted seaways ripple past
plumb line used as centered mast

Scales to tip uneven flow
weight to shift as whitecaps grow
determined strength fast to hold
adventures journey of the bold

Occasional drift...
