Full Blown Thunderstorm in Kansas
a tiny drizzle or an avalanche of water cascading like Niagara Falls?
April is giving us a joyful nod, emptying her clouds one at a time
Clothes on the line went from being sprinkled to saturated
robins had been hopping happily; now they are in hiding
I was dancing with joy for the garden and I needed rain
But this

watching a blown leaf
A soft breeze blows a leaf
It scuttles and scurries across the porch
Brown and shriveled, looks a bit like an oak leaf
Dead, yet still able to move in the wind
I can hear another hearty gale from the west
I wait for the leaf’s next performance
As she slides across the porch my puppy chases her

My Full Blown Addiction
A new full blown addiction
ls now what l possess
Which has entirely captured my body and soul
Its intense hold…. mere words cannot express
Five months now since it started
Yet it is completely out of control
It is all l can think about
Embedded eternally in my soul
This desire and longing is unbearable
The deep need for it

Blown away
My next door neighbour
was killed in a gas explosion.
On his tombstone
it simply said.
Rest in pieces
long time dead.

Bubbles blown to float, catch, pop
Bubbles blown, float in the air,
Shaking shining, way up there,
Blow them high, watch them fly,
Then pop them, Saying: 'Bye-Bye'!
Blow them, Pop them.
Float them, Catch them,
Say: 'Bye-Bye'.
Watch them sparkle, watch them grow,
Tiny rainbows, all aglow,
Dancing in the morning light.
Soapy balls up in flight.
Blow them, Pop them.
Float them, Catch them,
Say: 'Bye-Bye'.
Catch a bubble in your

Blown away by sheer delight
Rapturous joy, sets my spirit alight,
Gliding in free-flight, with shear delight,
The frolicking, rollicking laughter, fills the air,
With dancing and happiness beyond compare,
My heart is aflame, no fears in sight,
I'm blown away by sheer delight.

full blown thunderstorm
gray tranquility
cloudy unmoving pensive
endearing silence
moments before rain
loud whip cracks across the sky
wind quickly picks up
full blown thunderstorm
peace is obliterated
nothing tranquil now

Rock gently by the wind blows

Totally Blown Away
I first heard the word 'abrosexual' today
I confess I was totally blown away
Today bed a woman, tomorrow a man
To every desire say, "Yes I can"
Life endlessly changes, there's constant flux
Who

She Dances With Spirits
The wind brushes her red mane wild and untamed, lifting her gown
A trance sweeps and sways her figure while bright orbs surround her
Transported to other realms where forestry scenes blend far away
A wistful lean body revealed thru a sheer dress, she is lifted into thin air
As she twirls around to celestial sounds, with spirits

Be Blown Forever
We are blown
Like a feather
Into every
Insane ether
To see
The unseen
And to brace
Or wither
At times
To float
In the river
Like a boat
Or for us
To vanish
For ever
Like a mote
We need not
Hold our frets
Nor for the frozen
Hide those nuts
We are one
With the dust
Drift with the wind
We must
You are lately
Forgotten
By your own
Very nest
Be forgetful
Be slothful
And you'd be
At your best
We come out
Of nowhere
And
