Lying on a cold flooring, with a feeling...

Hot In Havana
Hot In Havana.
.
It was a sweltering hot sticky Havana summers
Velvet star-studded night
I was sat enjoying the scene
In a dance bar
As someone played the piano accordion
And guitar
.
Suddenly I was aware of a shapely silhouette
Stood at...

Dreamlove
they met, once upon a time-
her silky hand melds with his
for but a moment
an exchanged glance, fleeting
chocolate brown orbs
swimming in pools of milk
ebony hair dancing across her
backless gown as she walks away
walked away…

A Soft Bitter Slur
Now, in her solitude she sits draped in mock fur,
As the movie spool ends, silver lights begin to fade,
So, she slurps on her sorrows with a soft bitter slur
‘The sheer backless organza’ – a...

Schoolboy
Schoolboy
Can this be school? So dark and worn
a backless seat, walls of scorn.
Someone said, “We need a school.
This cement relic here will do.”
There sits a boy who’s come to learn.
See his human interest yearn.
He must...

I'm All That and an Appreciative Hat
I'm just an old-fashioned, flannel lumberjack shirt.
My father was some overalls, a farmer of dirt.
I'm a worn out and holey pair of cotton socks,
An unwanted sweater, packed away in a box.
My son's a fancy ascot...

Queen of the Willows and the Woods
Queen of the willows, ferns, shadows and moss.
Her miniature dragon perched on her lap with pleasure,
Both together adding to verdant forest a duo treasure.
Unclear to the feral and fey which one is the boss.
Lady green...

Apparition
It’s 25° C clear
but she’s gone.
The outlines of her shadow, hoping
that they’ll have a chance of putting them into use
in the fashion world.
She wears a black, backless dress
with a plunging front.
The soft contours of...

Should I have the low cut dress?
My décolleté set out ready to impress.
What about the long backless number
It shimmers and shines, no man will slumber.
I could have the short one to show off my legs

The Lament of a Penniless Bloke
THE LAMENT OF A PENNILESS BLOKE
For want of avocation, I became a poet
To bleed my misery on paper calling for an eye,
To see me in my tattered footwear and backless shirt,
But no hear have I...

Sixteen On the Street Corners
Sixteen she became more of a sexist.
With her skin smooth to reek the care
of her mothers touch.
Sixteen in a black backless dress,
a mistress look,yet a woman to every
men passing on the street corners.
Men with...

Blue Dress
Put your blue dress on
and let your hair down too-
your hair that is so beautiful

The sequins on its bodice

College-League Baseball Sonnet
Small stadium built in the late forties,
minor-league once, but has been left behind,
built with girders and backless, wooden seats,
a local relic of an older time.
The players look so young, barely can shave,
the pitching is rough...

S-o you won't suffer the Father's ire.
H-oly array during worship service
