Long Barbeques Poems

I was a skillful, amiable nursery worker, cultivating blooms in a greenhouse,
Like feverish and fragrant blooms, often grown in redbird's green treehouse.

Hours were spent sowing seeds, adjusting conditions, and also and pruning,
As June full moon...

I picture Kashmir through lightened KL. News of another massacre darkens my eyes
Winds are thirsty there. They continue to taste the young blood.
I groom myself with exquisite things,
Sipping ice tea in ac room, I comfort...

Hers was a complete change of personality, moods, and friends
Her joyful happy self, turned rapidly sarcastic, mean, and secretive
Her eating habits changed; she did not need food any more.
Stopped eating with the family, painted her...

I picture Kashmir through lightened KL. I see Kashmir through deserted eyes.
I am writing an elegy. While my Kashmir burns.
My blood has contents of a coward. 
What results my thoughts will forward.
Tears have dried. Heart...

I like to watch skeins of geese flying in the autumn sky,
And I like the smell of frying bacon and luscious cherry pie!

I like to see the sun tinting Pikes Peak's crown in the early...

The Universe is contained 
Not in a unlimited      vast    space
But in the street in front of my yard
My universe is magnificent
Blackholes in stomachs and cyclones of tortillas...

A ten pence curve on a nine cent? Oh dear. It is a shame when the circles form. Either a circumference is allowed to exist or it is chipped away. Thus is not the fault...

I always know when it’s last call
That’s when he stumbles home
He’s armed and he’s dangerous
With nowhere to go
But even in his drunken sweat
He knows his next target -
He shuts the windows,
And pulls the drapes closed

Then...

backyard barbeques and late night rendevous
snaeaking over your houose to get some
pool parties and card games flirting for fun

taking hits off the joint and rehearsing the art of war
looking at you like i never seen...

Today, I was reminiscing about Independence Day celebrations of yesterday,
And how happy throngs commemorated the day as compared to today.
Corona virus and rowdy mobs have seized our orderly domain;
I'm left wondering!  Will the Fourth...

I love Winter time when it snows and blows ice frozen flakes,
it is sublime to go for a walk by snow covered lakes,
I used go on nature hikes with dad, that memory aches;
at Christmas always...

OH HONEY, LOOK AT THE PRETTY PINK HOUSE ON THE ****ING CORNER

Is it all about two promises and two hearts set upon the same goal,
or is it more about two beings sharing the same soul?

A treasury of times, forever evergreen,
sown in limbs of maple and of pine,
like vast embroideries
that kiss a coutry-rich skyline

Skipping stones and marbled rocks,
those trees that arch across the creek;
the doors wide open, nude of locks
and...

is what i need

We reclined on a carpet of mountain greenery.
The smell of cut hay drifted upwards from a distant river valley.
The twilight of June stretched its intoxicating hues across time.
I scoured the alpine grasses for radiant wildflowers,
braiding...

Livin’ In a Small Town

Ring, ring goes the telephone
Mama answers to the neighbor saying
Do you know what your daughter is doing?
That is life

Livin’ In a Small Town

So full of mischief 
So full of life 
Neighbors...

For weeks, I cried myself to sleep 
While my prince charming was snoring gracefully beside me.
And those were the better weeks.
The good ones quickly followed,
In a rather orderly fashion
With dinner parties and cocktails,
And barbeques, and...

It's not about barbeques,
Hamburgers and franks
It's a day set aside,
For offering our thanks,
For those who died,
Or were injured or maimed
To fight against evil,
Whatever it's named

Pity that God couldn't 
Give them this day,
To let them come...

I snarl, bite and twist
tearing truth from rigid lips
cracked by virulent vapors
the kindling of Jesus’ manger
burning like a rancid piece of meat
diseased depravity tossed at hungry, mottled feet
as homeless children scour for a glass of...

July fourth means fireworks and barbeques,
a fun time to shake off those winter blues.

It's a beautiful southern summer's night 
and though clouds threaten rain, there’s few in sight.

A scarlet sun bleeds to death in the...

Cocktail party, only we renamed them barbeques.
I still do not want to be here, dragged by a so-called friend.
It is free food, he had a point there.
He drops me immediately, heads toward the dazzling ones.
