He who Lives, to green woods explore
and bathe in glowing moonlit streams
shall find his Love, begging for more
than pale ghosts in late midnight dreams!
She who his hot passion bestirs
in its fires, warms her eager heart
asks not for gold, diamonds...

She Was Stern ThereShe was stern there looking at me
Not quite a pout, almost angry
Her hair, wild, is loose all about
She keeps it stringy and spread out
Her eyes burning with fire, deadly
Heart bleeds seeming a mystery
Red between lips is what I see
Protruded out with a fine pout
She was...

Brrr! It’s getting mighty cold.
I suppose we can’t complain though. Our innings was quite long.

When I was just a nipper not long hatched from the egg,
Brrrrr! It’s getting mighty cold,
My...

Butterfly Elf Man Looks So SternButterfly elf man had a reputation for being a softie
Even though he looked stern, borderline determined even.
Not that it’s a bad thing, but he did not look whimsical or frolicking.
He looked serious, yet still, butterflies flocked to him.
Is he almost mean? Someone wondered aloud.
The butterflies...

Howard SternSung to the tune of Charlie Brown by The Coasters
He has a face made for radio.
He's a tall freaky geek with a Pinocchio nose.
Howard Stern. Howard Stern.
He'll never learn, that Howard Stern.
He's gonna get nailed by the FCC.
"Why is everybody trying to crucify me?"
Topless lesbian...

The Howard Stern of PoetryThere's a side to me that many don't often see.
I can at times also be the Howard Stern of poetry.
So be forewarned whoever may give me a read.
If you are one who offends easily from crap that's just silly.
You may get offended now and then...

STERN
Bare that stern solemn face
When things seem to go right
Struggle to feel clear grace
In the deep dark of night

shirley versus stern faceShirley sallied forth with another amusing quip
Does she never take life seriously? Asked stern face
I chose to ignore him, preferring Shirley every day
She is always joking, stern face said to another woman.
She did not reply either.
Shirley enters the lunchroom with fairy dust and magic sparkles

Look That's Stern I Hold OnI look so stern
Because I'm close to the heart
Here in my mothers arms
I hold on
Such a serious look
I do impart
Yet I too do hold on
I hold on
Cheek to breast
Ear to heart
I listen as I clench and hold
I hold on
A mother's love
Never ends as long as...

The Whole Nine YardsShe
sets sail,
November,
riding waves of
eddy leaves left from October’s debut.
Majestic and proud, she takes firm command,
steering the bow
of Winter
toward
Spring....

The Revenue From TrasgressorsMy name is The Law.
My face is stern
Toward transgressors,
But I can use
The fines they pay
Dropping into the coffers!
