Premium MemberClementine through the Clouds

clementine through the clouds
a gentle shower of shine

not blinding, but binding
droplets of a restraining eye

so like a passing surname
a sign inhabits the Summer day

hour upon hour of aimless thought
of a most gracious heavenly soul

she had peace as I struggled
my mom dying from same ill

clementine through the clouds
melting like orange sherbert

my eyes taste its pleasant hue

Premium MemberClementine Chooses the Worst Times to Call

Clementine calls the second we sit down to eat
she wants to talk about gout in her feet
I look at my meal wasting away
irritated I answered the phone right away

you know she does this all the time
Says my husband, frustrated at Clementine
hang up on her! My son says. She is not bright.
I cannot do it, for

Premium MemberBig Eyed Cat and Clementine

Big eyed cat and her baby fine
Went on an adventure with young Clementine
Clementine loved cats, especially kittens
She was so excited, she forgot her mittens

Not to worry, I shall keep you warm
Declared big eyed cat whose name was Swarm
I will keep your baby safe, Clementine agreed
They ended up high up, some might say treed

Swarm could prance

Premium MemberClementine the Bug Saver

The ultimate bug saver is my cousin Clementine.
She makes them into friends and helps them dine.
Termites have eaten the woodwork off all of her walls.
Crickets and roaches follow her to all of her malls.

She cannot step on one, she says it would make her ill.
They are all over her house, in her yard, up and

Premium MemberA Clementine Duet

When tuscan tunes of twilight,
cascade as clementine confetti, 
She searches for secret silhouettes,
swirling to the symphony 
of sunflower serenades.

In the midst of faded fields,
marigold memories crawl back,
refraining yesterday’s
tangerine dreams.
Swans glide in
sullen grace,
illustrating a saffron 
backdrop from
sweet sighs of 
fauna’s concerto.

Harmony of melodies
is the idyllic essence 
of dulcet beginnings. 
A plethora of 
prewritten words 
soar as

Premium MemberClementine

Clementine was gourmet fresh, 
plump and glowing no matter the season.
A monumental bargain for those with taste
who did their shopping at the misfit market.

We all wanted inside her space.
A human buffet flavored for nibbling 
and she knew it. I did.
I took her to parties just to get in.

She made comfy with everyone. 
We played the

Premium MemberClever Clementine

the birds are foul, they always follow the dumbest bird he told me and mine.
One of my children decided to fool the fowl, her name is Clever Clementine.
She put on a beak hat, and pretended to be a bird, of the very interesting kind.
They followed her up and down hills while she laughed and pantomimed.

Premium MemberSay Hello To Clementine

an unassuming stack of mellow brie
dark succulent grapes with a shine
two crystal goblets without water spots
large bottle of Chardonnay wine

he wants to take her off to a villa
Where he hopes to “make her mine”
his mother packs chicken and homemade bread.
She throws in two red roses. Say hello to Clementine.

The Clementine

"The Clementine" 

for the plucking,
the Clementine
leaves were fresher back then
the light glistened stronger
each segment a morsel 
a revision slow and deliberate
transcribed by Jerome
gates to be opened
and consumed 
in latin passages 
verdi vulgate ancient fruit
before the modern world
the meaning lost 
for those lost
between orchards
of words, opened 
before 
the greater great war, 
a harvest, the Q source

Premium MemberClementine and I In Spaceship Line

The first twelve hundred people who run out at nine
Will be taken to the spaceship number Line.
Coated down with resilient plastic corn zein,
So I invited my adventurous cousin Clementine.

She needed to come, for she did not have a dime.
Some prissy stuck-up bard had said she can’t rhyme.
We brought along a warm puppy, and cute wind

Clementine Lyon
1917-1918

Little does anyone remember,
That when the wee little birth door opens,
And the first light blindingly shines through,
Death is standing there, 
Laughing,
With his sticky net swishing to catch you.
But tiny me, how lucky I was.
I survived the birth plunge;
I made it through, squirmingly,
To this strange turning green world,
This larger extending net,
Made of twine from the

Clementine

I'm so sad and mad, said Clementine the porcupine
Everyone is afraid of me, one glance and they pee
Do they think I shoot my quills, just for thrills
I can't help the way I am

Me, too, said Antoinette the anteater
I look scary, be wary, others say, but I'm not
My long muzzle is no puzzle, this is me
I
