Best Slushing Poems
Memory of Hawaii At the Age of ThreeFor my muse, I choose the euphoric source
Of my most transcendent -
Lovely
- Muddy
Memories.
Perceptual flashes? slosh slushing
Approaching an untamed blue-green pond
Just your average amphibian gone blonde.
In sunshine or windward shower.
Loitering around the grassy brim,
On that one slick rock,...

The Gilded Silver Jubilee PegI insisted the jubilee amiability
to stir up with twilight-ed spirit
zeal of desires aroused
as the silverly rays crowned me
to pour out the gilded spirit.
Earstwhile crimson years
With some bichrome days
My glazed tumbler seems to reflect
those moments
as the sound of slopping gilded spirit
sloshed the bottom spattering...

I sit in my chair
Lovely music playing;
Afternoon sun shining;
Birds filling up to roost.
I look out my sliding doors;
The ferns are lush.
I hear a baby cry,
There is a sloshing sound,
Muscle sore boatmen
Never giving up.
Just a short way south,
Could I but see through the trees.
Last night...

MidnightWalking home, late at night
Heels clicking dully on the pavement, muted by the snow
Softly falling flakes, silent cold shroud
Even the passing cars are reduced to no more than a slushing sound
Pools of streelight serving only to remind one of remembered light
Then, an odd noise; a...

Winter Scene ThemesAt birds' eye view, from an icy frosty windowsill,
8 stories high: I see a city forest full of snowy powdery
pillowy packs that is spread out making a white-out
of black streets lanes and piles of pearly ivory
fluffy flakes causing tall white iceberg mounds
to abound greatly in...

Spring Break UpIt is an impressive break up.
The maestro conducts a symphony that
crushes eardrums with locomotive rumbling,
thumping, bumping, and dumping
of large chunks of cracking, crackling
crystalline ice pushing down river.
Hundreds of tons of ice come together –
hopefully without devastation.
It is an environment of change.
In...

Memo of the EgoWhere the cold winds come tramping through the woods
And leaves fall like dandruff from the woodland hair
Where memory retraced broken stems and seared buds
And white mist meanders more than mist upon the air
Where the roads have parted and never meet again
And what is so seldom...

Glitter LakeSunken to the bottom in the snap of blue delight
to simply bathe in glittering and crystal slushing ice
Silt and streaks of sunlight blowing through the gills of fish
sneak their skin upon my lips to usher in a kiss
Winter wilts and stutters as I shine my...

For Donald MccleanI thought of you but did not know how to write
All the things collecting dust inside a heart
Since the walls of boyhood crumbled, and we apart
No longer come slushing through the mud tonight.
I have kept naseberry seasons with juice sweet
As an old man's passion, running...

Cycle To RecycleShoulder to sturdy shoulder
solid white workhorses
soak, whirl and twirl
water whooshing
suds slushing
Gleaming metal centrifuges
tumble, toss and turn stiff rags
their wild ride ended

One Hundred and Fifty EskimosOne Hundred And Fifty Eskimos.
.
A hundred and fifty Eskimos in town
It’s freezing cold and throwing it down
Hands in pockets heads down to the ground
The cars rush by with a slushing sound
.
The river is flowing a mucky brown
The tide is high
As trillions of tears
Fall from...

2009Weather respite
Now just winds and minor flooding
SLUSH!
The human animal begins to believe
There is a God after all
Oil and dirt soaked snow outside doesn't look so bad
After all a spell indoors has restored
Pride in living
Floors swept
Everything meets the eye dusted
Hot tub after
Hot tub
So?...

VanillaI remember younger days
when the bright sun's golden rays
melted those old blues away
Bright and green when life was spring
hitching on the robin's wing
so much to do so much to know
and now life drifts within the snow
where did the joy of youth...
