Jacaranda Herald
Your sudden dome, like purple popcorn,
erupts as crochet-baubles:
Nanna-graffiti in a tree.
Underneath, dizzy bees stagger
in your fallen floral wealth.
Jacaranda on a spree: you herald heat,
cicadas, and thunderstorms
that will trash your lavish treasure.

Herald of Eternity
Poetic verses manifest,
for there is beauty unattained.
We yearn for distant, lofty skies;
for floating, contemplative clouds,
and souls that overflow the eyes.
Combustive, nameless hankerings
revitalize our sluggish hearts,
prolonging our linguistic cruise.
Forever, we anticipate
precise vocabulary hues.
All we possess is poetry
to hold on to our heavenly
infatuation with the world,
for poetry has always been
the herald of eternity.

Hark the Herald
Pretty pink sunset
I've got you on my mind
I long for you to be here
To share this late day find
It's one thing we've in common
Amongst many other things
We like to view the sunset
In a way it's like it sings
A brilliant colored cadence
The coda for the day
Heralding the terminator
In deepening shades of gray
Separating day from night
Soon it

Herald the Day
My song at daybreak is abundant with optimism.
The dawn brings gentle melodies,
As the sun peeps over the darkened horizon,
My song embarks on a song of grace,
As the suns golden orb is appearing
And lightens the darkened sky.
It brings vibrant colour to a sleeping realm.
My song springs into full illustrious voice.
Lyrics flooding the countryside with hope

My White Rabbit Herald
Hardly anyone else has their own white rabbit herald.
I do. His name is Poindexter P. Horacio Merry Merald.
He announces things to me in my ear all the time.
You don’t need to write that; it’s now time to rhyme.
That’s not the adjective I would use. I am flummoxed.
You are annoying me greatly; I am super gumm-uxed.
I

Hark the Happy Herald Angels Sing
Hark the happy herald angels sing
Bethlehem has ushered in a King
Peace on earth, mercy mild, good will to men.
Humble birth is a magnificent win.
Hark the happy herald angels sing
Star in the east has shown us a King
Animal in stable take a knee
Most wondrous sight they’ll ever see
Hark the happy herald angels sing
Christian’s faithful rejoice, and

Herald In a New Dawn
He gasped for breath under the brutal feet.... George Floyd, the black man at Minneapolis, a hapless victim of color prejudice. One more in the list... maligned for centuries, casting dark shadows in the dim light of apartheid, assault and abomination !
Our world is now fractioned and fragmented into a million pieces, unable to

Newsflash:
"Stranger times have never been
As humanity battles forces as yet unseen..
Not just those things beyond our eyes
But hidden troubles that wrestle for our lives.."

Hark the Herald Angels Sing
Glory to the New Born King
So what has changed?
To make our lives so wonkey
Christmas used to be simple..
Two people.. A donkey.
It's like we have seen

Mozzie
Clad in black white strips,
Herald of muggy summers arrive.
With alert feathery antennae,
She begins hovering around.
I was literally dumbfound!
I mean! how dare she enter unannounced!
Even the cop needs cause and justification.
How come she has no reservations!
She just says, “Mozzie is here to stay!”
Hey! What is this way?
Without any warning she inserts her proboscis.
Doesn’t ever bother, it

Herald Time Gone By
Throughout the Spring and Summer - we travel to many a fair.
We dress up in Renassiance Garb and see various sights so rare.
Vendors lined up in Merchants Row
Their crafts and wares for to show.
The mood is festive, the people are bright.
Oh, look over yonder, I see a Knight.
There's Lords and Ladys and Chivalry too,
I
