One Small Step, One Giant Leap

With those who
want to test the waters,
and yet have no wish
to get their feet wet,
but wait to have their cake
(and eat it too)
handed to them on a plate,
I will neither split hairs
and pick nits
nor reason or debate
(or tear their thoughts to bits)
so,
if they're going to 'fly',
(jump to a conclusion)
either do it or don't,
as Yoda said,

giant hole in the ground

giant hole in the ground
I think of course snake
dragon emerges with barely a sound
frightened, I start to shake

at two a.m. the dragon flies back in
how did he fit into that hole for goodness sakes?
I look down and his giant green eye gives me a grin.
I smell the aroma of a giant clam bake

are you okay

giant clothespins as art

giant clothespins as art?
I never realize they could be
But they are

Philadelphia has one made of steel
Designed by Claes Oldenburg
That clothespin is facing upside down
It could pin photographs maybe but not giant clothes

Turkish art professor Mehmet Ali Aysal designed one too
His giant clothespin was created for the festival of the five seasons
She resides in Chaudfontaine, Belgium

fearing the giant caterpillar

The giant caterpillar ate my shed
That’s okay, the color was an awful red
With a burp and a grin, the caterpillar ate my cat Quin
Quin was getting old, I said, calm once again.

That giant caterpillar slid under my bed.
A place I no longer feel safe laying my head.
I am sleeping at the neighbor’s down the road.

my giant dogs

iI have raised giants
both could pull me on big sleds

At Least One Giant Ground Sloth Is Alive Again

I found it curled in the shadow
of what used to be a hospital.
A slow hunch of fur,
the color of old bark—like the forest
had tried to grow itself a question.

It didn’t look surprised to see me.
Just blinked, as if measuring
whether I was worth the glance.

I sat cross-legged beside it,
tore foil from a protein bar—
offered the whole

What is that Giant Head in the Ocean

Was that a giant head bobbing out of the ocean?
The sightseers got out their binoculars
Something massive, a monster
Looked like a giant head

Captain of the cruise ship had seen this before
It is an ocean sunfish, they weigh four thousand pounds
They do look like giant heads
Their main food source is jellyfish

I felt relieved
I thought the head of

Awaken the Giant: A Tribute to Swami Vivekananda

They called him Narendra first—
a boy with fire in his heart,
a mind that danced with stars
while the city slept in the dark.
His questions shook the ground:
"Where is God? What is the truth?"
"Don’t give me words or songs—
I want to feel it in my youth!"

Then came the storm—Ramakrishna—
a saint who smiled at the sky,
and said,
"You want

Wish I had a Giant

Wish I had a giant that I could outwit
I’d sneak away when he told me to sit
Bring back the cops and they would arrest the nitwit
Alas, my tiny beanstalk has not grown one whit

Slay The Giant

Hungry minds grow
This is something we need to know
Everybody wants to be at the top
Yet many don’t want to grow while
On their way to the top

The darkness paves the way
Believing in yourself is something you need to say
Life paints an adventure with different shades
The blade of truth
Should remind you that you must not forget to

To The Moon Above

To the moon above
On mission of grand conquest
Men in  lunar launch

Defining moment
In “One giant leap for mankind”
Prints in lunar dust

Stars and Stripes planted
The flag flies but does not wave
In moon’s atmosphere

In that adventure
Proud men and women served
I was among them

Soon many giant steps
Were made on terra firma 
To visit again 

Time has written much
Since

Giant eye

                    

When sunshine warms my skin,
It's as if your gaze enfolds me, 
Bathing me in radiant love. 
Your eyes are the sun to my soul, 
Illuminating life's beauty and chasing away darkness. 
Every sunbeam whispers secrets

Giant

Now I am quite realistic
Never ever fatalistic
Fantasy never tickled my fancy
So you can understand my surprise
From their daunting size
On the streets of New York
My air left me as if released by a cork
For before me shaped like giant potatoes
Were ten gigantic too big toes
Human in everything but weight
Any want for fainting this can sate
Did I

my giant dog

When my dog stretches out
He is longer than my house
His head sticks out window on the east
His tail hangs out the dog door on the west
We have to tiptoe around his corpulent body
Trying not to step on his head or tummy or back
He is ten months old
His head triples in size every week
We have never
