the cumulus inspired your innocent imagination
with playful marshmallow fantasies —
the sun peeked from behind
peony-puffs of airy white
to admire the flounce and frill 
of your yellow sundress —
in the morning of your youth
you felt buoyant

by the age of...

Alas morning has come, 
the treacherous storm has passed
Anticipation heightens my senses as the wind swirls past, 
The essence of musk engulfs me;
Replacing the aroma of sea salt that once filled the misty air
I am assured that my beloved pirate is homeward bound

Perched upon my...

I loathe shucking clothes,
(no matter eyes severely myopic)
in preparation for here goes
another warm shower quickly
relaxing this senescent
body ready to doze

soon after lathering
this blubbery body
most unwanted fat grows
on me, no matter healthy diet
of worms, or how I stand,
not so easy add a pose

zing losing battle –...

The Old Soldier 
  
He was getting old and paunchy

Before Jack retired
He promised that
He shovel the snow
He'd feed the cat


He'd fix the roof
And mend the sink
He paint the 
Bathroom sunrise pink

He'd build a den
And repair the phones
He'd set the yard
With patio stones

He said he'd dig
The garden plot
Clean the attic
Extent the lot

He'd clean the windows
Eaves...

showed deadly steel

against cocksure doodling
haughtiness didst conceal
