handsome Harry hastily harnessed hazardous hayseed Hank
heightening his hellish heebie-jeebies.
Hank helped Harry handle hordes of high-spirited hitchhikers
heaping a hodgepodge of hocus pocus on Honey,
Hannibal’s handsomest hog

Love is the splendour that mystifies me
A rainbow in the sky colours my mind
Rapture bosom in high-spirited glee
Blind by passion, beloved we enshrined
Romance, Zephyr on a hot humid day
Dawn of spring after each winter season
As butterflies draw toward flowers way
Lovers seek closeness for any reason
Amor, a warm bright light within our heart
Set ablaze or calmed at our partner’s touch
Twin flames share deeper connections by heart
True love grows yet stronger with time as such
Two souls entwine kin to fine tapestry
Soul mates share eternal love happily

high spirited historians have had hissy high-jinx over alternative facts
interestingly, instilling intentional intellectual events with integrity intact
juxtaposing jurisprudence juggling judgmental journalism best they can
Keeping knowledge kosher
legalizing ledgers in the land

Jacque was a high-spirited lass with a smile as wide as my room
You should ask her out everyone told Phil, a potential groom.
Phil had less energy than a gnat that was dying.
He could not imagine being around this lass even when trying.
I don’t think she’s for me he told the matchmaking folk.
He did not even add tomato or cheese to his fried-up egg yolk.
He could not imagine being in a room with a high-spirited lass like that.
Which is why he lived his entire seventy-six years in a bachelor’s flat.

Dance
makes me
play, act, move
like chic play girl
bold, carefree, nimble,
self-expressing feelings.
High-spirited freestyling
Sexy, flirty with fast salsa
Lively, jazzy in swing and shimmy
Romantic, seductive with rumba
Passionate, controlled in tango
Sensual with bachata
Pert, saucy in chacha
Elegant in waltz
Slick in disco
It let me
amuse
me.

the Bindu point
wherefrom nectar flows
comes alive spontaneously
we let it do as it pleases
for it is high spirited
as a mere receptor
we have per say no role
so resisting not we yet wonder
at seductive dance divine
enlivening feeble form
transfixed in rapture
intimacy known to us alone
we foolishly attempt to delineate
knowing that is beyond mind
employing metaphors

High-spirited sports car enthusiasts, burning rubber
and speeding in the wind. Motorcycle lovers, making
high-sounding noises. Birds singing by day; crickets
by night. Fight off the mosquitoes, wasps, and
all creatures desiring the insides. In heat and
humidity, stay highly hydrated. Drink a lot,
stick with water and soft drinks but stay away
from the hard stuff. Be happy and be wedded,
but also, be wise. Catch a fast plane; be safe
and go far. Or take a slow train and enjoy
the terrain. Her name is Summer, a relative
of April and friends with June and August.
Going kayaking or will you fight the water rapids?
Stay-cations are out; vacations and family reunions
are back. For many a year, the roads always took me East.
But this year, my family is beckoning me to come North.

Kindergarten Teacher
Kind when she shares her bologna sandwich.
Imaginative when she has to use Q-tips to teach.
Nurturing to teeter totter injuries.
Daring when rescuing an mystery object from the toilet.
Earnest when explaining this adventure to her principal.
Responsible for helping 23 children put on 23 coats and getting all 23
to the bus on time.
Gentle when covering boo-boos with impossible to open bandaids.
Aimiable when greeting parents.
Resourceful when finding uses for 75 popsicle sticks.
Tactful when explaining Timothy's new permanent marker freckles to
his mother.
Energetic when chasing a dog off the playground.
Nose blowing expert.
Talented when using a pipe cleaner to replace a lost shoe lace.
Elated with a new set of blocks.
Afraid of itchy heads.
Capable of jumping rope in heels on the playground.
High spirited when there is a snow day.
Excited about caterpillars.
Ready for nap time!

The loss of family or friends is hard to just set aside,
our lives have been changed forever,
we grieve for them a little more during the holidays.
Quote By: Poet
Merry Christmas in Heaven,
With a snowy winter outside,
Nature in white, no place to hide.
Neighbors decorate their yards to
Rejoice Jesus's birth in yuletide.
Family home for Christmas Eve,
Happy and high-spirited, weave
Through sweets, drink, crackers, and cheese.
The home alive as the world in glamour.
A small tree, a warm drink, and plate of treats to thee.
My love, I believe you'll never leave.
A tear of grief, as we were wed on Christmas.
A gift of love to each other we received.
A day I can never let go.
A day I will never forget.
Merry Christmas in Heaven.

The pretty monsoon, the lovely monsoon,
Is the one season that could instantly make me happy.
Oh, I can smell that nostalgic fragrance of the wet, wet sand.
And see the silver mist that has made its way on the young, young leaves.
Glancing around, the sight of the little, little kids,
Crafting their own paper boats with sheer exuberance.
And that one group of high spirited girls,
Who just enjoy the pouring rain to their heart's content.
A little away, those wet, slippery roads,
People being extremely careful as they take a step.
And then, there's my little cousin who loves enjoying,
Playing loud music in his cozy room.
Those scrumptious fritters that mom is preparing,
Are just worth the long, long wait!
And that sound of the heavy rain on the roof,
Is probably the only loud sound that doesn't exasperate!
But what am I doing, you may wonder?
I'm sorry, dear reader, I just realized I was lost in my sweet, sweet fantasy,
Cuz, it's unfortunately winter currently!

Turquoise circus leopard could transmogrify when he took a notion.
Appearing as a shark, whale, or clown fish, swimming inside an ocean.
When he reappeared as a leopard he often retained his blue color.
He’s an embarrassment said his sister, his aunt and his brother.
But he is also beautiful, argued his father, and his sixth-grade teacher.
He is way too high-spirited and spiritual, argued the Baptist preacher.
In a few years, turquoise circus leopard began studying the sky.
Now after he transmogrifies into a cardinal, we watch him fly by!

Be dynamically spirited high spirited joyful and vibrant

A Butterfly
A Butterfly swarming in the air
Giving sparkles away for breathe
High spirited cocoons praising
The birth of their sister.
And the butterfly singing a song
Lamenting the demise of it's last laziness.
Now to swim in the air
Forgetting hopes in flight dispair.
And to be catched by a child
And again let go to fly
A colourful brigade showers
For the hoping hearts to unite
Fun for the creator upon the breed
Not knowing the values of shorter lifespan
That gave man the choice of roles to keep
