Goody Goody Gum Dropgoody goody
gum drop
more than sweets
may mean
a lot
ate a gum drop
just popped it in
rolled around
let it spin
left and right
hugged my cheeks
swashed about
then repeats
savor the juice
sugary delight
tickles tongue
this tiny bite
stuck to teeth
once it's in
while i smiled
big green grin
might not be
a better thing
than this
except a warm
sloshy kiss
80...

A Vow of ParadiseI made you a vow of paradise
Though I knew I could not find the time
To show you how much I cared and treasured
The sincerity of your love and devotion;
I wanted to take you to my father's plantation
Where birds found some pretty preys;
Or to the river...

Lover of the SeaThe sea is a wild feast -
my heart in breast beating.
The sea, a hungry beast,
tug of war competing.
My feet dissolve in its wake.
I wade out to meet the waves.
Ebb and flow of friendship.
Salty air above my waist.
The wind sloshes my lips.
My cheeks, a blush sunbake.
I...

The Dust SuckerKonrad’s hoover hovers from wall to wall in the back room of his mind
A partial vacuum once the power switch is on and all neurons are firing
Time for a good clean up the curtains have been drawn for far too long
Stage abandoned curtains closed and...

SplashYou have two choices:
Splash me with tenderness
or splash me with spitefulness.
Whatever you decide
to batter me with
is what you’ll
be swashed with afterwards....

In a NutshellSeasons pass away little by little
time moves hour by hour
Within your branches, your hearth of leaves
I wait in patience, moment by moment
years turn decades, nurtured in hope
rolling in your epochs of excitement
murmuring in your sighs of endowment
Yes, at last... the first acorn is...

End of LifeLetter to whom it may concern
no need of reply in return
this lifetime
You promised I won't let you go
but a melting candle won't glow
for lifelong
My love still shined in lighthouse trust
into a dark sea swashed and thrust
in lifeboat
Countless waves of ifs and whys...

A Soliloquy of Unrequited Love
Written on April 13th 2025 for Sara Jama's Prompt The Cold Embrace of Death
Reverberated within the empty chambers of my soul,
As I soak my skin in a clawfoot tub, drowning in my sorrows.
Daring the waves to wash me away,
I...

Withered Voyage-~ The ship has sailed
Casting seas
This the sentimental voyage
Those the waves engulfing me
Watered down withered tattered and torn
Swiss and swashed washed and decked these waves
So are compassionate so blows the winds
From the east to the west
Alas now I find myself shipwrecked~...
