The Curious Coif
Enigmatically stubborn to style, the coif
Some days it can be easily pulled off
Other days it requires an exorcism
Like Zoolander it can look like ‘Magnum’
Hides my receding hairline like a charm
Sophistication to my head’s yardarm
Its antidote is a very windy day
Requiring heavy doses of hairspray
When it works my lady wants to stroke it
I recoil in fear,

I'm curious about Jesus verses
For lunch, do you know what Jesus ate
on the very day that He turned eight?
Barley bread and goat cheese,
onions, greens, and chickpeas,
and for dessert ~ a honey-dipped date.
Here's a question, just between you and me ~
did anyone ever see Jesus pee?
I know of no book where it's recorded,
but was anyone ever afforded
a peek, say, by

The Curious Crow
A clever young crow from Belize
Collected old buttons with ease.
It hoarded its stash
In a bucket of trash,
And sold them for shiny gold cheese.

The Curious Whisper
There once was a secret to tell,
That started with one little spell,
A whisper so sweet,
It swept off your feet,
And left you enchanted as well!

investigating a curious vine
is that honeysuckle, jasmine or poison oak?
If I get too close to it to take a photo, will it be a problem?
I get a teensy bit closer, because I want a great photograph.
My sister does not have to respond to my text.
I am itching all over the place without even touching it.

Curious Mindset
Written: May 12, 2024
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Delicate views reveal fractured strands
Grasping for straws, mere words alone
Hidden from anxiety is a solitary grace
We must share and embrace with fervor
Proceed with dignity, in tranquil peace
Roaming thoughts, unbridled perspectives.
I'm engulfed by my views and obsessions.
In hushed

I am only curious
I sit beside myself and think,
And try to evaluate my life;
Yes, my life that is blotted with ink
My life of which evaluation would cause strife.
A strife between the living and the dead,
Between our world and theirs too;
Between the ignoramus and the intellectually well-bred.
A conflict none can describe as new!
I sin and sin again and then

Another First!
Just another first
Oh the joy of having a 3 year old grandson
Who I can share my love
And loves with.
And so today
I buy him his first CD
Soundtrack to Curious George
By an artist I listen to.
“Without you I was broken
But I’d rather be broke down
With you by my side.”
Indeed!

The Curious Persistence of Contempt
Seasons change, love remains; my heart stays soft.
In marital bond, your touch soothes the hard.
Though less gentle fondness falls from your mouth.
Through gale storms and glee, I have held my mouth.
In the autumn of our lives, I need soft,
lambent serenades to supplant the hard.
Each cycle through time has made your bind less hard.
Weathering me brought

The Curious Little Fox
He is a curious little guy, we knew for sure.
His eyes were piercing, but his heart was pure.
For a fox, he is kind of dainty, said Old Mrs. Sight.
Do not upset him, I replied, for he might bite.
The fox was known to take a nibble or two.
Out of a person, a lamp, a bread bag

The Curious Case Of Lady Adler
The charming Lady Adler Irene;
Was strangely nowhere to be seen;
As revealed by this clear blanked out scene;
Where those who knew her said she'd been,
Where oft she did appear.
That splendid genius Sherlock Holmes;
For whom no mystery stayed unsolved;
Took up the case within a beat;
As it transpired this curious feat,
Involved his very
