A VALENTINES FAIRWELL

 
No chocolates, no flowers, no sweet Valentine's treat,
Just the bitter taste of defeat.
 
No cuddles, no kisses, no romance so grand,
Because, darling, you just couldn't handle this hand.
 
I'm a whirlwind, a hurricane, a chaotic delight,
Too much spice for your palate, too dazzlingly bright.
 
You wanted a calm sea, a gentle breeze' sigh,
But I'm

Destiny

OH DESTINY!
Everyone walks your way unwittingly.
They ask your whereabouts,
To get to know you hopefully.

OH DESTINY!
Your path is traversed with difficulty!
A trip, slip or a fall,
And we'll lose you completely.

You're forceful in your manner,
So to most, you are an enemy.
But you rise above the mediocre clamour
And reward a few generously.


OH DESTINY!
You test my integrity!
To God you

Valentine's Madness

To her I wanna give flowers
I want to surprise her with the most expensive necklace
I desire to take her out for a vacation in Miami
She absolutely wants to see me
Getting the most romantic dinner recipes
Irresistible desserts of chocolate mousse
She wants us to have a memorable Valentine's Day
Absolute Valentine's madness.

Last Valentine I plucked some rose flowers
At

Cathy

Hubby decamped,
Kids gone,
House dilapidated,
Garden gone to seed,
She took-up Tai-chi.

Facing East,
A half veiled sun
Behind her,
She became a
Pictograph,
Crowned by
A golden rice bowl.

Forget Me Not

Forget me not

Rebellious heart
Cast the spell of love
Flirtatious,
Like spring breeze 
Lacks boundaries,
Meaningless!
No conclusion!
Shifting shadows
Only walked
By the unhappy

Two Cigarettes and a Beer

Two cigarettes and a beer, dear
That's how long I'll be here
If you never show
Then I'm gonna go
After two cigarettes and a beer.

You know I'm not big on forgivin’
And not much for talkin’ things through
But if you’ll swing on by
I'll give it a try
Though I don't think I'll hear nothin’ new

Baby I've heard your last reason
For

Break Up

I remember when you said "I don't know"
It felt like a spike shoved deep
to the hilt
shattering the smooth surface

The fractured sounds reflected
in the glass 
a web of cracks

Like ice when winter goes too far
below freezing
air trapped in pockets
leaving holes
sparkling with blue hints of restless currents 
underneath the surface

Treading like an ox too heavy to hold
fissuring

Break of New Day

E-arly in the morning 
V-ile weather passes by; 
A-fter the rain has gone, no more coal clouds in the sky. 

B-eautiful beacon shines 
U-nderneath the blue heaven; 
T-uesday thrills your heart 
I-n December twenty-seven. 
A-llow the haze to fade into the stormy Monday; 
L-et your birth bring light to the break of new day.

Without

I met you today, the lights we installed we chatted about us and all that entailed.  I caught my breath when I saw you and a tear dropped out. I wanted to hold you but I had doubts.
I looked in your eyes, but it wasn't you. I see what I've done and the hurt

Of past events
It is not a propaganda 
Tool for political

Coffee Break - Seize the Day

Coffee Break  (Seize the day)

In every tick of every clock
There is a trick that follows with a tock
Tick- tock, tick- tock, swing on lost pendulums
To stop, to seize the day, remember to 
Live every day to follow death
Die every day to follow life
If you cry each day
If you laugh each day
You have lived a

Mama

Sadness is a place I lived in for years.
 NO MORE!
 I'm finding my way OUT.
 Cool windy days are best...
 They blow away uncertainty
 and remind me of vegetable soup...and NPR.
 And the rain is brain colored...
 And the thunder sounds just like
 something remembering something

Premium MemberThose Eyes, Break of a Day

To me, yea, Iris is all alighting 
The scent of yours all pervading, 

Behold your face chastised
When I close my eyes.

Can’t see you in flesh and blood
But I can paint you in words.

You are Wordsworth’s daffodils
Membrane of the eyes reeled.

The eyes give light at the dawn
The light that misleads the morn.

The eyes green, sexy and
