A Momentary Dazzle
Sunlight tumbles
over an open window,
then swallow-dives
into a silver kitchen sink.
Fractals of reflected iridescence
dance over China plates.
A surface tension
between a faucet and a drop of water
creates a solar flare
within its liquid release.
I imagine a mighty splash,
picture an arching rainbow
cresting over high waves.
Buoyant beams
spill over the glinting rim
of a breakfast spoon.

A Dazzle of Poetry
pulchritudinous ingots chisel and shades
dazzle and illuminate umpteen reasons
poetry is like a swirling, susurrus-sibilant chimera
of innuendo arty souls, albeit vapid syntax
around serene scenery, orbs, and idealism
Is unction vital to adorn naked words with plumose wings?
whose views of contentment, vim, and happiness?
Inversely hamstringing people with arrows?
sighs of sorrow sound sowed soil
mothers, wailing and yelling out to

Hedrick will Dazzle Your Eyes Out
Em had said, “Hedrick is so gorgeous now, he will dazzle your eyes out”.
We met him at a posh restaurant; both his arms were covered with tattoos. He would have looked tough if I had not known him as a baby.
floral arrangement behind him softened him up too.

Razzmatazz
Razzmatazz is jazz beyond roots and blues.
Razzle-dazzle kaleidoscope of hues.
Music and dance with multi-color moves.
Its pizzazz and cool schmooze amuses.
It fizzes glitz and glamour in views.
Which delight even the sanest muses,
To write poems no reader refuses,
To be dazzled, frazzled by its uses
Of words come to play with no excuses.

Dazzle
There I stood in the darkest of light
The glittering edge of forever night
Ahead I tried to peer
Through a glimmer of a tear
Dazzling my wide open eyes
Seeing time, how it flies
Stepping ahead into the light
Just looked so right
Changing of a way
Time set aside for a day
Stepping within the tick and the tock
Standing

Thunder drops a huge boulder of sound.
CRASH.
Count...1 & 2 & 3
FLASH.
brain tremors oscillate fright waves!
Is that my face in the sky?
What took my picture
as I looked into those lit-up eyes?
Could it be?
No,
I'm still here aren't I?
The deaf hear my heart-beats don't they?
Dogs bark on an edgeless periphery.
Go home draw what you did not see -

Dazzle
Prismatic beams
flashing bright
red and orange
blue and green
Crystal wings
so quickly move
as butterflies
to flowers go
blossoms of
rubies carved
sapphires too
glow in the light
emeralds shaped
pulse with life
from mother Earth
into the light
chimes ring out
their carillon calls
songs of nature
sung by the birds

My Yellows and Oranges Dazzle
What sorcery is afoot in the woods on this October night?
I stir a few embers, and relight myself
The humans asleep or dead, I don’t care which
I am alive, a fire phoenix, replenishing my absoluteness
An owl hoots a warning, trying to wake them up
I begin to dance, as warmth spreads throughout my timbers
Sure, you thought I

When I Get Old I Will Dazzle Your Eyes Out
When I get old I will dazzle your eyes out
I will become a giant spectacular supernova
I will be awesome and fierce and people will shudder at my brilliance
When I get old I will turn into a cosmos
A galaxy of my own truths, and my own opinions
I will not be afraid to use my powers to
