Long Creamer Poems

Give me a pleasant, 
Elevating and 
Elegant embrace
Times like these are Grim 

Believe in Him
Don’t give up on them –
The people you hang out with
So much fun, I can clearly see actually, 
Time and time...

I'm thankful and oh so grateful

Spill it all to the floor some more
I heard you shut the...

There was an old lady, a frumpy old bag
who people called horrid, a witch and a hag
And 'though she was ugly and danced 'mid moonbeams
all was not quite as it might've then seemed

Old-fashioned black clothing...

It’s what gets me up in the morning
It motivates me every day
Coffee
A normal person might say my dog
Or having to use the bathroom
Okay, a sad normal person would say that
Some things should just be legalized

I can't understand your marvelous cries 
I am surprised by your approval to let me go... I thank you wholeheartedly, you know? 
I'm left in pieces in...

It has been brought to my attention that everybody believes they are as real as they claim

And if this is true then 100 should have a new name.

Because some people are 50/50 like coffee creamer...

You're my best friend brother, a grown man and all. My dreams are so short but you make me them tall. Misdeem (misjudged) by the world, an x-ray to your visual mind. You understand my...

There it was, a stranger of sorts. 
I say "It" in place of "man" as my memory supports.
A beguiling arrangement of coffee mugs,
 porcelain creamer boats,
 filled with lumps of matured cream.
 Sour and old...

A cinnamon roll
Such a true breakfast delight
With cup of coffee.

Are surrounded by
Limits which will have limits
Are interlocking.

No limit to what
I can ever do with God
Help and assistance.

Bright was morning sun
At end of day...

Bustling people and clinking forks
A crowded maze of tables and chairs
The soft conversations meant to be secret
Rise to a horrible din of mingling words and phrases

The smell of stale coffee beans and perfume
Caress my nose...

That girl is an over achiever
And avid reader

That girl is a real brainteaser
Yet a true pleaser

That girl had a golden retriever
And a house with multiple bird feeders

That girl yeah she's a high speeder
The music always...

Interruptions

She calls each day at noon, after her 
maple bar and coffee.  
Her only meal for the day.  Whiskey’s 
dinner.
I try to pick up.  Answering machines 
seem to frustrate her.

I want to...

I Like Creamer With A Splash Of Coffee
In What Direction Did Your Mind Take Flight
Poetic Language Leaves Room For Deep Interpretation 
Even Though My Statement Is Literal Truth
It Packs A Punch Of Figurative Youth

Chocolate bars full of nougat and peanuts,
Sour gummies that get stuck in teeth, 
Chalky fruit-flavored tablets,
Things coated in colorful candy shells,
With metallic wrappers I constantly hear crinkle, 
Covering an entire square foot of countertop.

Yesterday’s Brew

Her sleep-twisted eyes wake early Monday morning
from a Friday night dream of memories and laughter
The coffee smells black like yesterday’s brew
but today she needs creamer and a cigarette too

Rays of love shimmer through her...

Light

Wherever there is darkness there is also light.
Dark, dusty room, open a window: light.

Monday morning and black coffee triggers cringe,
Hazelnut coffee creamer turns bitter, black espresso light.

Bright eyed child, up and about at the cusp...

Mary-Mary, quite contrary, her garden does not grow.
There is no dirt, there is no fence---Not a greenhouse of any color.
Mary-Mary had a few little lambs, but they ran away from home.
Even though they are grown--She...
