Dead To Me Fear
A babbling brook I bridge

A foot on either side

Hovering over my reflection in the middle

My fishing rod cast aside

My hunger ever slowly subsiding 

As breath and notice overcome me

I am as at 1 with what is placed before me


But here I simply can not remain...

49 years past; a puppy was bought, picked up out of his pen on a pet shop floor;
he had honey brown eyes & an inquisitive way. He grew to be so loyal and true, how can I say, with just one blaze of white upon...

Mummy took us to the zoo
she hoped it wouldn’t bore us
In truth I think that mummy knew
we’d see a Brontosaurus

I stroked a small Triceratops
it had a tiny pink horn
I fed him all my chocolate drops
the keeper eyed me with scorn

I kissed a Tyrannosaurus Rex
When I...

Old Maid Hadder, Got Madder And Madder


Old maid Hadder, got madder and madder
wind blew her bonnet and wet upon it.
Soaking showers from a blackbird's bladder
taken aback, next she fell doggone it!

Did not matter, her day in a tatter
rain pouring down, gave her another frown.
Wind drove...

Cellar
He forgot to padlock the cellar door
Perhaps now I can discover
What it is he does below our kitchen floor
That he keeps secret from my mother.

I flick the switch but find no light
That just inflames this kittens curiosity
So I descend the stairs into the dead of...

The Blanket
My brother and I once played hooky
On the porch in the cool morning air
I had a blanket wrapped around me
Climbing a step ladder that was there

Standing at the top of the ladder
"Look at me now I'm a giant!", I yelled
I climbed down and took a...

O Don'T Know What This Is Called
The implosion of a thought is neither a shred or a shard. In fact it is surely a pulsation of a wisdom whirlpool? Really? How rather radical. And amusing to the laughs of the rhombuses who gather with rhinos to celebrate the correct correspondence from...

Pair of
Glitter shoes
Match my red dress
Outfit for old year
Dazzling in the ballroom
Until one of them was left
In five star hotel step ladder
Gave away chance to meet charming prince

The Princess and the Ruddy Great Rock
For 30 years this princess has been slowly but surely piling up these mattresses.  The goal 
you know already: a contented night’s sleep.  Soft, satisfying, and a whole lot more cosy 
than the rugs that those poor bugs seem to get lumbered with.

Broken Strings
Broken strings fill blank stares
From the spectators in the crowded stands.
On sea or sand, carnal essence fills censer bowls 
Spraying the prayers of the undiluted 
Up and out of cement cracks and cluttered attics.
Born to disease, my shadow.
Born with it in a basket of nonperishable...

I'M Scared
Did I mention that I'm scared of heights?
Well, I guess I probably just did
See, that's the reason my step ladder
Well, my wife, makes sure it's hid

Now I can climb anything at all
But my problem is coming back down
Even if I'm standing on a step stool
It...

My spouse and I own a comfortable home on a quiet street,
And we have roses, flowers and bountiful fruit trees replete.
I take great care to ensure that things are regular and complete.
That way, from neighbors I'll take no unwarranted heat!

I planted a holly bush a...

The Ties That Bind
I fell into a puddle
I fell into a creek
I fell into the ocean
Man, that waters deep

I walked across the sidewalk
I walked acrooss the street
I walked across the Great Divide
Man, how far it reached

I climbed a three step ladder
I climbed a mountain peak
I climbed into a...

Pillow
Pillow :
Cotton soft and oh so warm
Here I will wait for bitting dawn,
For my bed is cold as winters night,
No comfort will i find tonight.
Don't let anybody tie you down with the illusion that they still care
Or that they've changed
Or that they'll never love anybody...
