Long Assortments Poems

The generous character-carried-by them good-old-girls-and boys down-home country-copper-

low the greater-story askant-of curiosity carrying the pureness of a child as to why... . 
Smoked-up hickory-honey-bubbling bacon...

Walking but not finding
The struggle feeling like a binding
The possibilities in what could be
Lifted being my own accord
Oh help me please Lord!
A dream becoming my introduction to the sky
Heavens guiding me in what is allowed
The...

A slim smooth man
Every step being his command
His fashion statement being high in demand
But his distinction being pinstripe
Pinstripe always dressed fresh like a spring ripe
Assortments had to be just right being black and white or...

Raspberry Kisses


Silent kisses throughout the air.
Just like the wild raspberry affair. 


Nowhere to know how,
Can they be found!
Now they are here,
Only to me you appear, 
Fragrantly simple and sweet,
From your head to your feet,

Melts-in-your-mouth, easy...

I often wonder at a knife-edge.
I thank, for this, the master craftsman;
Shine or dull; sharp; or blunt like a wedge,
Within them, hides vast arts a million.

Assortments of knife-edges I know.
V edge: for veggies! Tool of...

collections show facets to me
assorted pieces hail history
recollections kept deep inside
where irrational follies hide

motley montages, memories
my collections, things that please
miscellaneous, sorts of stuff
put on shelves to gather dust

various items mingle mixed up
me, I drink from...

When I think of decadent desserts
it assails my senses and I go berserk
tantalizing, surprising, flavors entice beyond compare
staring at the compilation of assortments are so unfair

So many to choose from
I stop and stare
what do I...

They have in their senses,
A bloated self-image worthy of pulling the best.
Letter-assortments, their sense, they knew not,
Yet march on with leaps of obstinacy to brim.
Subtly aided by the fairest in all,
Visualed only due to sacrifice...

On the back porch is a glider;
I can sit on it and glide.
It’s just perfect for relaxing
When I want to be outside.

Don’t confuse it with a rocker,
Though they both cause you to move,
Since a rocking...

A galaxy of thoughts... 
Influential notaries donated 
Given to me; freely... 
I am most grateful 
Educating me, the reader...
I am a learned man 
Taking in all that is offered... 
I relish the amenities, assortments...gifts 
Pleasurable...

Plucking from the gardens of spring,
Blossoms of each floral offspring;
Threading them into fine bouquet,
Adorning on an empty tray;
On them, I ruminate...

These diverse leaves of the autumn,
I collect from each tree-bottom;
Place in a basket finely-laced,
Like stars,...

City life turns to sparse assortments;
Of local pubs and country homes.
Tall brick walls fade into fences;
Amongst hedgerows and mossy stones.

Crowded bustle soon lowers its pace;
Those now free, move unconfined.
Only thoughts spent are of contentment,
Peaceful surroundings...

We praise the blessings of organic teas 
with great flourish in a health-conscious time.
Aisle 12 of the store has choices to ease,
some simple maladies of any daily kind.

Irregularity, stress, or sleepless nights,
can be healed with...

The outdoors 
Mysterious sounds 
The animals, the rivers, the greenery 
The fragrances that breeze in air 
Maples, evergreens 
Leaves; fallen 
Trees...too!  

Birds singing 
Owl's- hootin' 
Colonies of ants, spider webs- galore 
Fields of flowers-...

Bits of wool, bits of lace,
Driftwood piled all over the place.
Seashells and flowers too,
Nails, clasps and a variety of glue.

Crafts of every shape and size
Created right before your eyes.
This is how I spend my day.
Built...
