My Cornucopia
Cornucopia,
horn symbol of abundance-
full, overflowing.
Good memories
like luscious fruits, fill up my
cornucopia of dreams.
Stored deeply within,
and reaching beyond,
it is blessed with abundance;
a feast before me
to feed again, grateful thoughts
when sad hunger strikes.
From my cornucopia,
I retrieve life's sweetest gifts.

Cornucopia Eyes
Flittering all about, unknown souls - get to know them.
—by poet
As the wings of a butterfly uttered simplicity,
Hues aroused in me curiosity; humble is she.
Each soul, created carefully; cornucopia eyes.

Cornucopia of Pageantry
Sukkot's a holiday seven days long
supplies to buy, a home to build
No one's inside in our neighborhood
The fragrance of myrtle
the esrog's beauty
Cornucopia of pageantry
harvest's heavenly booty

Heartbroken
As I remember my quondam days,
I contemplate, I ruminate,
The musings of the bygone time,
Cleaves my heart apart,
With a sharp twinge.
I was tenderfoot, budding,
blossoming.
A bit naive, obtuse,
Savored euphoria in everything.
Being born under a lucky star,
In the cornucopia of,
Love, happiness, and blissfulness,
Was incomprehensible of the,
Forthcoming quagmire.
It came all of a sudden.
Like a bolt from the blue.
Snatched everything

Cornucopia
Trumpet Sounding – abundance Resounding –
A harvest not Empty – a horn of Plenty –
Season bounty Astounding – safe from snowbound Surroundings
Fall Caressing fair autumn Blessings.
Sweet orbs of Green or burgundy Seen
In arbors that Wait grape clusters to Take
Nectars Serene in fermenting Dreams
Dew mists so Fine like sparkling Wine.
Breath of Autumn whispers soft harvest Hymns
Ruffles

The Mythical Cornucopia
All around the horn and neatly placed inside.
A battle of the fittest, a chance to seek a bride.
The mythical Cornucopia, a consecrated piece.
Sought by all the Gods, a broken horn from a beast.
A cheat became a bull, a legacy now it warns.
If you mess with the bull will you get or take its horns?
Maybe it

Cornucopia- Ever So Plentiful
lorn, horn plenty;
diplomatic abundance;
overflowing mass;
~
symbols of supply;
goods, things of a specific kind;
shaping like goat's horn,
~
vegetables of corn;
ever so plentiful so...
flowers, fruits, and more;

Cornucopia
In Classical Antiquity, “Cornucopia” means plenty,
A symbol of abundance, nourishment overflowing;
That was my Mother, a Cornucopia for many,
In her lifetime of service to others, without crowing.
Evelyn was many things, but "Master Chef" by definition,
The magical commissioner of a welcoming kitchen;
Where small talk ensued, as heat was applied,
Every recipe and dish, using taste as her guide.

Cornucopia
In a lavish land of bountiful luxury
designer clothes lace their debonair
supersonic dreams celebrate wealth
magnates in mansions and fancy cars
wine cellars and buffet, silk ties in style
usurped soul in vault, slave to the dime
booming business in stocks and bonds
fortune and fame, luck of golden diadem.
abundant worries, like poor and penniless
spectacular elite, in an ocean

Cornucopia
The season arrives and and I must prepare
my horn of plenty will be dusted soon
to garnish anew with all fruits and greens
and feed my Muses with such tender care
a broken horn that Zeus had repaired
gather together the sweet and green food
to satisfy and reveal a new mood
to replenish my empty soul again
abundance anew resembling

Mama says this is where
I was born on a stormy night
the benignant horn was where
she'd paused to breathe and reside
The bounteous hollow took her in

God has blessed me beyond my wildest dreams
He’s given me more than I could imagine or think,
Blessings alive with faith, hope and sweetest love,
Filling me up with joy from the throne of grace!
God has shown me that I am worth so very much…
With a bounty sent from the heaven’s up above,
Inspirations that fill my heart

Cornucopia of Glory
Cornucopia of Glory
Come to the Cornucopia of food
It will lighten up your mood
Bring happier times in dreary days
The the sunshine rays cast away the haze
To a plentiful glory
Tell your story
A story of hope, fun, and friendship
This is what the Cornucopia brings
A sense of kinship

Cornucopia of Divine Grace
Under the seamless sapphire of the sparkling sky
my mind morphs into ornate vase of blooming vale,
carved out in chromatic contours by cheery cascades,
gliding through the bounty of blossom on wing of zeal.
Harbored in the stony shore of the boundless blue sea,
a lone pebble I roll relentless on tireless tides of time,
caressed
