This Is No Fable

I was relaxing in my sunroom, one very peaceful afternoon,
Enjoying the fables of Aesop, and all the flowers abloom.

The view from the many windows, was gold sunshiny delight,
With blossoms and rich greenery, and many birds...

A Visit To Quiet Town

While returning home from my job, in bustling New York City,
The blaring horns of traffic, and the noise were getting to me.

With loud yelling on the sidewalks, and cawing crows up above,
And my poor aching...

A Bedtime Story

Once, a long ways away, and a long time ago
Lived a wee little man with his silly pet crow;
And once every day, as the sun went to bed
The wee little man and the crow he...

Alice Through The Wormhole

"I'm bored," said Alice to nobody in particular. Lying in her bedroom, gazing wistfully at the stars, she often wondered what life might be like on another planet. School was boring, she didn't have any...

A Jasmine June

It was jazzy June and green butterflies, filled the air with magic.
Then butterscotch days were long, until the purple sunset panic.

Sunny June, when music festivals, were staged in shady parks;
While in treetops purple martins, warbled...

A Danse Macabre

Along a winding country road
one autumn’s day of late,
I chanced upon an aged abode,
up a hill beyond a gate.

The house was old and quiet,
not a person 'neath its roof
but in a tree close by it
perched...

The Reunion

The sixty-year reunion
of the class of '55
was quite a celebration
for the ones who had survived...

First came prissy Pomeroy-
then Milford, Meeks, and Moody
who like old crows, perched and cawed
at busty old Miss Trudy

While Trudy curled her...

She liked driving fast
The number plate in the dust

Their destination was Wichita

Off Route 66 Silver Lady purred
Some Kansas backwater 
Galena sped by in a blur

Dark Blight of Halloween Night

There was a dense fog upon the land
not a fit night for animal nor man...
the moon did change its silvery view 
replacing it now was a blood red hue....

There just beyond thicket of the marsh...

Est'Bel Strolls

Urges ushered Est’bel out of her abode –
a cottage cobbled together from cobwebs and clapboard – 
and she scuttled forth,
her nesty hair tousled
by a leaf-laced breeze

In her bony hands she clutched
dregs of a nightmeg broth

Dark Eyed Traveller

Standing at the tavern door,eyes dark and brooding
Neath his floppy hat, stared into the crowded room,
A Raven flew from his shoulder settling in rafters high,
He smiled a sardonic smile and ordered a mug of ale.

Nature's Whispering Trees

The towering pine were poised
at the edge of the forest, standing
in all their majesty,
arms locked, heads touching,
speaking in whispers.
They exchanged secrets the wind
stole and scattered.

So began the saga of the woodlands and
man's intrusion with ax...

The Poe

(Is this microphone turned on? Testing one two, Poe was a dip, Poe was a dip, testing.)

Once upon a daydream, faintly
whilst I watched the boob tube, quaintly

A November Day

The morn dawned bright, with autumnal light,
the cool air was crisp and clean:
overnight snows that fell, as all could tell,
had changed the country scene!

Sounds heard shrill, through air coldly still,
birthed echoes, sharp and long,
whilst the...

A Sacroiliac Day

I thought this was for old folks? my hair dark brown
Just a little gray, I watch clever acidic comedies at night
I have dreams, had hope but now the pain adds years
My husband is cranky and...

The Gleaming Crow, a Treasure Before Her Eyes

The gleaming crow, a treasure before her eyes
Her flirtatious wings dripping out behind her
Like lush curtains they swayed in the wind
Her coiled claws, held to her chest, scraped one another
She cawed to him
I love you...

Little Miss Witch On Halloween

When the darkness opened wide,
Little Miss Witch twitched her nose.
She bewitched a dress in a mundane stitch;
Halloween clothes from head to toe for trick or treat.

She walked down the street
To meet with the other sweet...

Regression Whispers

 Regression Whispers 

ancient almond wild stood still 
stark in dark forest through which 
moved determination

a quick tobacco roll
cold beer 
AK the companion
whispers in jungian depths 
puffed from psyche
fumes of struggle, lymph   
floated...

Amid Sun rays

Why did not give fresh and spirit

Brooding Nimbus

Darkness loomed over the place, 
Damp air hung like a shroud, 
Crows cawed in the distance, 
If ever you felt gloom, it was here, 
You could almost reach out and touch it, 
A cold mist...

At the Sound

At the sound of the opening door 
The crows cawed a warning
A stray cat perched upon the fence
Meowed to greet this morning

The warm sticky fog touched each pore
Made life uncomfortable
How early in spring does summer

The Cemetery Bell Rang

“Death can never separate us. Each time you feel a gentle breeze, It's my hand caressing your face.”  By Mary Lucas

The first bell intoned its dreary dirge.
The feel of emptiness spread all around.
