Wood-chopping Sonnet

Grab up some pine I cut up last weekend,
back creaks as I put it up on the block,
splitting maul flashes, in an arc descends,
sinks deep in the wood with a meaty THWOCK.
Logs splinter off, tumble across brown grass,
coated in saw-dust from the chainsaw's blade,
small bits for kindling, they catch flame fast,
mix with bacon grease, fire-starters

Chopping Board

The chopping board gets cut upon every night and day
        It doesn't moan or say whose wrong or right it's
        Just chopping boards way

        Sitting in the corner silent waiting to be used

Chopping Away At Damaged Wood

Chop Chop Chop

Differences in swings

Chop Chop Chop

Change up the tempo

Chop Chop Chop Chop

Ill make a difference in them

Chop Chop Chop

If I trim a couple of edges itll be perfect

Chop chop chop

They’ve been my friend forever

Chop chop chop

Well I’ll go out with them once it’ll be fun

Chop Chop Chop

Why does this feel so good

Chop Chop Chop

Just

Chopping Or Shooting

Chopping wood sounds like shots - gunshots.
If they are done right, and these are.
Chop. Chop.Chop.  Shot. Shot. Shot.
I am outside, writing in the sun.
My hands are startlingly warm.
A sense of well-being surrounds me.
A pink aura has me in her grasp.
The wood chopping sound gets my attention  for a second.
Chop. Chop. Chop.
I look up

Chopping An Onion

Chopping an onion 

Hold your breath and feel 
My words a chopping of 
An onion is more difficult 
To bite your soul..... 



With love all

Chopping Some Ice

I had to chop some ice today
To free my snow-blocked car.
The sun was my assistant,
Helping soften from afar.

I borrowed from the handyman
A strong long-handled tool,
Which worked better than a shovel
And was really kinda cool.

It’s a gratifying feeling
To accomplish what you must
For when taking care of business,
Stress and worry bite the dust.

Chopping Cotton

Chopping with a hoe
Grandpa said go down the row
But I didn't know
