Long Bundling Poems

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A new day begins and new promises made
The child guiding his way
Finally warmed he seemed less afraid
As through the snow they slowly made headway

     “Who is this child?” he whispered to...

It gradually turned chilly between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Although Frosty the Snowman rarely visited our part of Texas, his pal, Jack Frost, surely did.  He wafted his way through the drafty house, chased by...

It was a simple task, sweep the floors and keep the fire going
whatever his master was brewing the flame must not go out
Tittle thought himself adequate and most confident
out he went into the woods to...

I see it now
flying low
over silver-spumed waves.

I am a watcher
I can enlarge the picture
        zoom in
look into bright midnight eyes
        as...

the only tree for a thousand miles 
gave him welcome if temporary shade
a kaleidoscope of mockingbirds filling its branches
it was no longer possible to be blind
but very possible to be jailed
for being unaware of our...

How ideal to luxuriate
supposed divine right frill
maximizing climate control
with matter of fact bravado
creature comfort pang to fulfill
consequent flagrant portent

to exercise freewill
beware controlled environment
pays hefty bill
cracking heat as
temperature gets chill
cumulative destructive

ecological footprints generated,
thus advisable to swallow
figuratively...

Kids are excited to wake up and discover there's no school, it's a snow day
They look out the window and see a beautiful blanket of white, but it's not outside they wish to play
They want...

Beware the “Reader” Phishing Scam

By Elton Camp

I had considered myself practically immune to phishing scams, but I found out differently last night.  While I was doing some online searches, just as I often do,...

When a precedent-busting pandemic is palling around the world 
when its concomitant panic and pain freak out
it is your fine figures that are unflinchingly unfurled
e'en as proctective gears barely eke out.

Isolation wards owe you diligence...

This opened moment viewed together through the mirrored glass;
Reflections of tomorrows past with all the deigned and feigned 
And foreign feelings felt. This moment deep into the next will melt.
Deep enough to fill the reservoirs...

I am a genius
I must profess
I have a Doctorate in bundling
And one in making my life a mess.

Everything I turn my hand to
My efforts soon turn to dust
I'm a knight in armour
But covered in dents...

Gather round while I spin a yarn
  'bout a young gal, grew up in a barn
With horses and cows, she had her own stall
  She loved taking care of them, most of all

She'd...

I can fly us anywhere
You name the place, I'll take us there
Want to go explore the seas?
There're seven, come explore with me
And continents? Yep, seven too
I'll visit all of them with you

Or we can just...

This was her thirty first year and she could not wait to start
And with Christmas now getting near she so enjoyed her part
Gathering up the different spools with colors joyously bright
She took out her knitting...

The greatest love song
             written
 never made airplay
   Somewhere, shes
    grinning because 
 she dances every time

You know I am in the ether, darling 
You feel my presence, though we have not met
Do not settle for anyone less, wait for me.
I promise I will be worth the wait.

I feel you in...

From the bower of my abode,
At dawn and twilight I strode.
Crispy leaves rustled as I passed,
Over frosty, shimmering grass.

Craving even paler sun on my face,
Amid stiff breezes I set a good pace.
Staying indoors all day...

Amid the bone-chilling temperature
people would have kept moving
with all the snows elsewhere
cars and other vehicles run slower.

But the need to go somewhere
draws me to keep going
with my agenda for that day
causes me to go out...

Behold the cold village Baskerville fog
  and holiday summer fields bundling hay,
the Officers Club back door buying grog
  till all our money slowly pissed away!
And lock and load shoot to kill in dead...

Soon come snow-packed ridges
Slippery trails along frosted lanes
Warnings of danger on our bridges,
Blizzards sweeping o’er the plains.

Blustery morns, wind chill factors
Slippery trails along frosted lanes
Snowplows mounted on big tractors
On a lighter note, candy canes!

Bundling against...

Larks are ascending funnels of sky,
songs smoke from enteral chimneys.
In an industrial park a fine Autumn light
burns bright.

Shoes fill with walkers,
we are out and praising
the clanking machinery,
for we are all leaves 
in the same furnace.

What a cruel let down
A heartbreaking shakedown
When summer bliss
Exits with a sunny kiss
How short-lived the days
That conjure our praise
October gales abruptly call
Announcing the arrival of Fall
Bundling for chilly nights
We set our sights on new heights
It’s...

Milky petals propagate in circles
Blooming into purity
Silky smooth layers wrap around each other
Attracting even the Queen Bee

To mark a new beginning,
She opens herself up to the world
With immense pride she matures
But why do all the...

Yiddy awdy those ticks are here to stay.
Here and there but everywhere astray.
 
Tick tack I am going to laugh at that.
On the Moon or on the Sun I have sat.
 
Jump started or kick...

Spring and winter are wrestling with March
One day it is seventy-two and almost balmy
By that evening we are in danger of getting frostbite
For two days we are running around in shorts.

The third day has us...
