WHAT  IF  Written Pre-Pandemic

What if a rigid thinking, extremist group
Decided to do something about Planet Earth’s
Over-population,
I mean let’s just think about this, fantasy 
Of course, Just a vivid imagination!
What if they wanted to eradicate and eliminate
At least fifty per cent of humans’ world...

A tempest rages deep within
A storm brews in my soul
Outside conflict seeping in
And stirring in my bowl

So many things that I expect
And never seem to gain
I try to stand back and reflect
But I'm clouded by the pain

A simple task that I request
Be done when I...

The chicken soup and matzoh balls
Are ready for the pot.
The hard-boiled eggs are in the fridge.
(We never eat them hot.)

The items for the Seder plate
All wait for their debut,
With my homemade charoses.
(Google if you have no clue.)

The chicken cutlets, farfel-topped 
And stuffing made from same
Will...

I bought a new pillow
But you may behold,
In back of my closet,
Where I hid the old.

My chair pads were faded;
I purchased a set.
Did I ditch the first ones?
I haven't quite yet.

My glasses, old-fashioned,
Looked blah on my face.
My new ones sit next to
The old model's case.

Replacements...

PRE-LIT TREES

Pre-lit Christmas trees are great
As long as all of the lights burn
But when the lights begin to go
There's a lesson to be learned

Though you admired your pre-lit tree
So beautifully all decked out
When the lights go out, the glow is gone
And your wife begins to...

He 
platonic as can be
only love 
in his mind 
enters passion's 
room, unknowing of the
lust
contained in whom
was tempted by the door
as shoulders stroke
lightly

She
restrained by civility
now freed by passion
has indecent thoughts
gushing, body parts
flaring, her wet
tongue pouring
she stalks towards him
on a prowl for her meal
skin dragged by
desire
pulling...

Percy's pickle pointed west
Larry's pointed down
Little Mary looked perplexed
Percy grinned and clowned.
Mary's small feet kept abreast
Larry looked around
'Till a tree limb snagged her dress
making Mary frown....

I came back from a cold windy walk
Off with my mittens and hat
And coat and boots
On with the tea kettle
I opened the box
“Lipton - 100% Real Tea Leaves
Serve Hot or Iced”
Oooo not ‘iced’
I don’t even want to think about that!
“72 Tea Bags
Decaffeinated with Pure Spring...

Older and more mature
Learning from mistakes
Age 3 was a year
Of utter experience
 
Dancing and singing
Like nobody was watching
Never silenced
By the dark night
 
Even if the words
Were unknown
More words went in their place
Never ending the tunes
 
Energy was crazy
Moving at high speeds
Never stopping to sit and...

Pre Easter Prayer 2015

In the name of Jesus Christ who is our Lord and Savior,
I start by closing my eyes,
 And sending my spirit in the heaven closer to our God,
I speak a holly tongue,
I open the entire heaven and let the holly wind blow...

Pollen green 3 inches
Of allergen confection, powders outdoor landmarks. 
A few ticks past dawn,
New birds, preflight,
Tune up their chirping chords, 
Like nature's philharmonic, knowing the neighborhood
Is soon to enter their amphitheater, in, from their rooms of sleep. 
Little lizards scurry, large clouds puff up and...

Omni-pre-sent


Are we yearning to remember
Are we learning to forget
Living in the mind
shows we're not there yet
Are we earning to remember
Are we turning to regret
The present past
knows we carry the debt
along the line that is cast
beyond the moment
Not meant to last
beyond the movement
that is here and...

*** In the Dream Foretold *** A Devotion Series Poem

I am getting over paralysis from nerves twisted along my spine.  The agonies are
passing, but not gone, so I am standing, leaning over the kitchen sink; with great effort
I lean, wrapped in old towels while...
