A Place of Timeless Harmony - a Tribute To Connie Marcum WongShe rides on a sailing ship high in the skies
embracing creation of her wandering star
cheerfully greeting her guests.
Some pleasant and chatty,
some on occasion she may ask,
“Please don’t fall over me.”
Hawaii is where...

When Sweet and Soft Morn No Longer Calls Out, Dedicated To My Dear Friend, Connie Marcum WongWhen Sweet And Soft Morn No Longer Calls Out,
Dedicated to my dear friend, Connie Marcum Wong
When heart is broken, ocean is drained
All becomes sad-blue, all life is stained
Dawn brings epic sorrows, no real relief
Ripped and torn, shattered some beliefs
Midnight moon casts down that terrible blue
Everything...

The Ballad of Connie Marcum WongAn idiom by which she's always stuck
is 'having one's head buried in a book'
The truth behind it, she was unprepared
that morning as she went to climb the stairs.
Stopping to lift a bottle, bad mistake
especially when one isn't quite awake
her balance gone, could not control herself
now...

Aloha, Connie Marcum WongAloha, Connie Marcum Wong
A fellow islander, here in the State of Hawaii
Plain common folks in touch with its aina (land)
Noticed by many soupers long before this tadpole swam the pond
Well-grounded, skilled with a pen, with a memorable persona,
In my view, I became a welcomed homey,...

Tribute To Connie Marcum WongI couldn’t so delightful an autumn poem write
As dear Connie Marcum-Wong, so admired,
For colorful leaves falling in gentle breezes
Have not the muse our dear Connie inspired.
She was more beautiful than golden russet leaves
And therein I find genuine similarity as I write
Of September here in old...

My husband thought this so appealing
I said hands off my chest
I can heal my own breast
With a flea in his ear he’s reeling!

Wong Road Taken(With apologies to Robert Frost)
Four feet to the sky, he lay
in an attitude of surrender
confessing his sins
of hunger, of greed
of slavery to his quest
for surprise, for enchantment
around the next bend.
The Armadillo found
that life sometimes slings
death and destruction
and the road not taken
would have been the right...

The Witches of Wong Get Everything WrongOnce upon a time in a woodland vale,
A town called Wong had an amazing tale,
Of witches who plotted to harm the townsfolk,
But their spells were so bad they became quite a joke.
Hubble, bubble, trouble and toil,
Evanora boiled her soup,
Of frogs and bats and...
