Premium Member reheating nachos

Peter (my bf) and I are keeping it modest, practicing the art of the small things. Among our repertoire of pleasures are simple conversations, after long, exhaustive school days, in non-technical language.

Shall we wax poetic-ish?

Ever, my heart had blazed as if branded by fire.

Then love finally arrived to sweetly quench that unseen, smoldering blaze..

Fate, for a while, like scissors, came between us.
But having thus far proceeded, I did sorely miss the confections of closeness.

So, I shamelessly plotted to conjure sordid-reunions.

You may damn the force of my weaknesses and think me devilish,
but I am, after all, a living, female thing.

Do I relive that awful trauma? No, living in the past is like reheating nachos.
No one wants that.

Or do we? We take so many pictures, now-a-days.
Are we sore afraid of losing our yesterdays?

Premium Member Aunt Matties Place

I love to reminisce about great Aunt Mattie.
Her home perched atop of an old barber shop; 
a barber pole below her apartment told my young eyes 
that we’d arrived at her place.

Her tiny space, smelled of a million confections and 
um, lilacs; house a plethora of oriental treasures; 
stories fed my wild imagination.

She worked as a nurse but, she was born with a baker’s soul and 
she should have had her own bakery.  
The old candy cane pole was so appropriate;
revealed her subconscious desires.

I believed her canary sang so well; 
of sweet scents wafting silently throughout the rooms; 
he was so blessed to reside there inhaling the, 
buttery chocolate and caramel bliss.

I was blessed to visit and savor them as 
I perused her, “what knots”; 
the Chinese dragons and lions who shared her home, 
her brass dragon gong, now lives with me; 
it still sings of her creations; 
each time that I awaken it and my palate joins the song, 
as I travel once again through, “what knot”, stories; breathing in butterscotch, cocoa and lilac memories.

Premium Member Lavender and Lace

I awaken to the woodland scent 
of a favored fragrant herb.

Its aroma transcends nocturnal bliss
and then softly seeks so gently to kiss
the distant lingerings in my mind.

Of a cherished place where I had laid
embraced warm in a lavender field
and was but long loved 
by its strong perfumes
so fragrantly released.

Overfilling my heart 
and infusing my mind
with all earthly bodily pleasures due
Its overwhelming possession of my sensibilities
its passions hence do hold my senses close
as an all encompassing lover 
that it doth still now consume.

Its intoxicating signature fragrance,
like no other that hereby exists
The most vivid contemplation of Indigo,
that one could have ever seen
Infusing its heady oils upon my much younger memory 
and an older and much sweeter tryst.

The palest shades of those lavender flowers remembered
each blossom a sweet sachet
Eternally to be engrained upon my mind
the heady confections of that day 
to be forever missed.

The most complementary plumes of color, 
that before I'd ever had met
Stretching toward the horizon's backdrop
a blanketed sea 
a gently moving ream
A natural artistic composition of heady lavender
composed of surreal artistic color.

A palette holding court over the opposing values 
and yet very complementary hues
of lovely, lovely lavendar
and wonderful planetary greens.

And if I ever were a bride to be, 
I would desire to marry among the flowers
My sun kissed hair would be loosely worn,
 its wildness framing my upturned face

In a field of the world's most ethereal scents, 
a regal vison in colored lace showers,
Surrounded by a heaven 
of millions of happily scented blooms.

In an outdoor cathedral of fragrant herbal spears
the lovliest of earthly rooms.

I would share my love, 
of my beloved and with my beloved 
for all whom by their presence cared.

I would unite with my love to be right there
I would unite with my love to be
for all to witness as I promise you forever
for all to witness our solemn vows
above a cloud of perpetual lavender 
amongst the waves of those purple seas.

In Lavender and Lace 
I would marry my love
I would marry my love to be.

Reflections on My Childhood on Apple Avenue - SK

My childhood was both sour and sweet,
Sour because I lived with two mothers who were immiscible liquids,
Sour because of sibling conflict and strife,
Sweet because my brother and I enjoyed the company of communal friends.

Growing up on Apple Avenue was a memorable experience,
There was a large field at one end,
It housed a public school,
There were vendors on the field who sold indigenous confections,
My brother and I were their loyal customers,
There was a tree on the field that barely had leaves even during the rainy season,
We were told different mystical tales about the tree.

The highlight of one of the evenings was a bicycle race,
Chopper versus BMX,
The race was about which bike was faster,
In the maiden race, my brother was a few metres ahead,
The Chopper rider  committed a foul,
He collided with the rear wheel of my brother’s bicycle,
My brother’s  bicycle tumbled and he sustained injuries,
It resulted in a fight between rival groups.
The bicycle race was on hold for a long time.

Premium Member Exercise

Granny, you need to push back the plate
Or go down stairs and work on that weight
Granny, you needed to start watching what you ate

Oh! That hurts, you weigh too much
I don't mean to be a grouch and such
But when on me your whole weight touch

My springs start to sag and padding goes flat
Especially when you also add the fat cat
Or that chubbie granddog who weighs ..well fat

Promise me you'll make a new year's resolution
To lose ten pounds that would be the solution
No more confections  or pizza or fries try exercise, exercise

(I could not think of one from a chair's point of view and I know that you will find this 
strange but I am through.  For the Speak, Chair contest.)

Desert Sweet

Mirror the night
                                              the fragments of a moonlite glare
                                                      a warm subtle moment
                                                            only lovers share
                                                        a desert warmed night
                                                  We swim pooled by the night
                                                     morning we then breakfast
                                                        in memory of the night

The Hickories were strange in 
Mesquites Territory
The dessert served first
then supper
then the snacks
we swam in the Mirrored 
desert home
With the cob plastered
 oven in the garden.
The rasberry wines
and sorted confections

Premium Member Christmas Confections

Christmas Confections

Visions of candy canes, swirling red and white stripes,
Pirouette through our dreams spinning Christmas delights;
Sugar sticks and sugar plums tweak our imaginations
When bright store windows show off marshmallow creations ~
 				~ ~ ~
Truffles and toffee nestled near gumdrops red and green
Spun sugar delights fit for a queen;
Peppermint bark, only seen once a year,
Graces gingerbread houses when in villages they appear ~
				~ ~ ~
Raspberry candies filled with gooey, sweet centers
Hold hands with ribbon candy - childhood remembers;
Creations of fudge draw our attentions
Chocolate and maple, vanilla nut confections ~
				~ ~ ~
Sugar and cinnamon coats nuts of every variety
When coal lumps of licorice invite stocking anxiety;
Pralines, nonpareils, cocoa snowballs, chocolate mints
Sour stars and lollipops leave a holiday footprint ~

Premium Member Scrawled Sweetness


Penning delicacies
Like chocolate eclairs
Lemon chiffon
Colorful words, affairs
Of the tastebuds
Delectable shares
Light and appealing
Nothing compares
To heavenly puddings
Sweets like prayers
Promising goodness

In poetry and prose
Scrumptious words rise
Detailing mouthwatering
Thoughts, lovely pies
Capturing the silent joy
Twinkling in the eyes
Of those mouthwatering
Desserts who baptize
The tongue in delight
Nothing can disguise
Such yummy satisfaction

The empty page cannot know
Ways to cleverly melt
Prose with pleasantness
Here in the bible belt
Where we know our sugars
Blended with heartfelt
Palatability, allure of desserts
Who bring such deep-felt
Ecstasy from the soul who knows
Appetites are alive, indwelt
By such luscious gratification

Writing of honey loving tastes
In saccharine hearts, devoted
To pleasant flavors, 
Both tangy and light, quoted
By legendary authors
Poets – writers who noted
The savory enchantments
Found in confections, coated
With powdered sugar
Floating in syrupy delight, voted
The best part of life

Premium Member Haiku Passage 9

Evening cicadas
Cacophony climax;
Night time music

~~~~~~~~~


By this playground
Noisy frolic parades;
Little feet gather

~~~~~~~~~


Haiku moment:
Brief promontory,
Dragonfly buzz

~~~~~~~~~


Raining non-stop
Wet moments splash;
Umbrella parade

~~~~~~~~~


Aqueous verses
Heavy pieces drowning;
Pouring rain recites

~~~~~~~~~


Walkway cobblestones
Busy footfalls conspire;
Old man ponders

~~~~~~~~~


Odd faces
Cellphone conversations;
Bus-stop queue

~~~~~~~~~


Gone away
Cannes vacation;
Stopover at Nice

~~~~~~~~~


Fruit serenade
Plate ready-to-eat;
Delicious desserts

~~~~~~~~~


Dazzling confections
Sensuous delights;
Ice cream scoops

~~~~~~~~~


Dangerous curves
Sculptures of art;
Calligraphy unfurls

~~~~~~~~~


Beauty walks by
Curious eyes watch;
Attraction sizzles

~~~~~~~~~


Midnight buzz
Moon hiatus;
Darkness greets raindrops

~~~~~~~~~


House hunting
Viewing prospects;
Curious query judges

~~~~~~~~~


Glimpses here
In a new light;
Dawn brings gifts

~~~~~~~~~


By my bay window
A grand view;
City lights tell

~~~~~~~~~


Cheer cascades
House warming party;
Hope wears well

~~~~~~~~~


Poignant posture
Mindful moments move;
Stretching sway slants

~~~~~~~~~


Yoga trance
Body dance rituals;
Graceful ecstasy

~~~~~~~~~


If you must ask
The master said;
You do not know

~~~~~~~~~


Plain words tell
Potent fragments;
Haiku presence

~~~~~~~~~


Dynamic
Plain telling sculpts;
Balance firms form

~~~~~~~~~
