August Honeydew
rays deviation
gathered in the sorrow of flowers, smiles
falling asleep on the blood moon, honey
glued on the lines of the palms,
hearts
that flow like sand from the fists, masters
on the other side of the dawn,
rising dunes in the sky

Heavens Honeydew
Verse 1
Heaven drips its honeydew,
Pouring love where it’s overdue…
Your fetching face is in its view,
For heaven drips its honeydew…
V2
Sunshine breaks serenading thru,
My country lips, I’ve had a few…
Never seen the likes, of forever you,
For heaven drips its honeydew…
V3
With a scorpions sting, I’m turning blue,
Decaying in a desert I never knew…
Until I saw your smile

Honeydew Sherbet
Honeydew Sherbet
Down the patio walk,
white stones, through the garden,
under the trellis toward me
yellow frock, yellow hair
rising and falling
I lie in my lawn chair,
spoon honeydew sherbet, sip
pink ade from a tall glass,
cubes circling
She is almost upon me
I look up and I tell her
I have sand, sea, skies, laughs,
all paid for and nothing
nothing at all
