COUPLET
After a couple of Tequila Sunrise
so I swap my drink that'll keep open my eyes
so I had a glass of Kahlua and cream
that's a blunder as I fell into a dream
INNER RHYME
I awoke that felt like a cape of good dope
morning sun I think of myself as undone
but what finds me amiss is what all of this
all awry the land slants slights but not the sky
END RHYME
No matter where I roam sand sea smells like home
glad I be if it's true but sad though I knew
a place that's all new naught a place where I grew
I walk and I moan knowing I am alone
RHYME
Flowers of blinding beauty scents that steal souls
sandy beaches where surf surges and tides ebb
eddibles and delectables island naturals
but minus the faces I know ease my schlep.

Opulent tongue puddle
Oz in desert, so green
Orchestra of rich falls

Oozing delectables

Harvest fields
autumn fruits
farmer’s yields.
Garden vegetables
appear in abundance
church lunch delectables--
Roasting corn and green beans
sweet peppers, carrots, and
tomatoes, by all means.
Afterwards, an old-fashioned hymn sing
perhaps with heartfelt testimonies
faithful church members will surely bring.
Sometimes a gospel quartet's on hand
to present a concert of requests.
If the church’s young people have a band
they might perform some special number,
which will be enjoyed by everyone,
then all go home for welcomed slumber.

Somewhere inside Big Red is her body.
A shield against winter drafts and cold
It covers her delectables and wraps her delights.
I hate it.
Its artificial fur vexes my skin and hides her from me.
But I know, inside that unnatural mantle is her body.
MMMMM OK.

A plentiful bounty,
Filled with such delectables
is the cornucopia,
Signaling autumn,
The season of thanks.
